We really enjoyed our day here and hope to come back soon. The sun was out and so was everyone else looking for some time to relax in the sun. Great views from almost any vantage point. Got in some good steps walking around and checking the place out. Found a few starfish and cool looking mini crabs all different colors too. Water was still a bit cold but was fun for my kids. The drive up here was amazing and relaxing. Definitely coming back here again and I highly recommend coming here for the views and fresh air
Great place for a swim and a walk, free showers outside in car park for after your swim and lovely clean toilets, plenty of space to park your car. You can swim in the Sea or the Lagoon, really need swim shoes for sea as it’s rocky and a bit cool but I was ok in just trunks, very refreshing, can get a bit choppy so don’t venture out too far without a tow float. Lagoon more sandy and warmer and safer.
Pipers Lagoon and Park has both an exposed beach and a more sheltered beach. Even on the exposed beach side of the path there's a small bay that's great for swimming in the summer. This path that is between the lagoon area and the exposed beach carries on and leads to a variety of trails to explore. If you're able to climb a bit to crest the rocks at the end of the initial easy and accessible pathway, you will find a well worn main path that takes you on a short hike around the rock that has many beautiful and interesting views of the surrounding ocean, lagoon area and the historical "Shack Island". Be prepared for protuding roots and rocks on the trails, once you reach the end of the initial walkway and crest the rocks to this path.
First time swimming here. Beware of the tides. The ferry boat waves come in like rollers. Be aware of the current path to not swim to far out. Parking is a nightmare when it's hot out! I love the fresh water shower they have installed. The beach has its Rocky, pebble and sandy sections.
Beautiful views. Ample parking. Short, flat gravel pathway that walks between the ocean and lagoon. Short paths down to beach. Was there on a sunny spring day with a brisk cold wind and it was still awesome.
It was really neat to see the tide come in and the lagoon fill up so fast. The little cabins on the island are quaint. Beautiful area We were confused about having our dog there. Dogs aren't allowed on certain beaches, but allowed on the trail. I didn't find out if there was a dog beach. Dog-friendliness: Dogs aren't allowed on the beach
An awesome walk / place to explore when the tide is low. Both of my kids 8 & 4 years old had a blast there. Check your tide charts before going. Low tide is better but even high tide is still a nice walk.
Rain or shine this place is awesome great to go and relax and stroll around. Plenty of parking. Picnic tables are here and a water fountain in the summer. Awesome family place no playground here.
Great place to check out a Gary Oak ecosystem and lots of Shorebirds such as Sandpipers. Note that during bird nesting season dogs are not allowed to be off leash in the area as signs say.
Perfect little park with a magnificent view! Easy quick walk for all the family. Definitely worth a stop
