Sandy Cove Whippoorwill Point Trailhead

Short Hike to a nice beach. Some fairly steep terrain so it's a slow go with kids but good to get out!

Not as famous as people make it seem. There all lots of locations to hang out by the beach. The beach is by a water treatment plant, and there’s lots of traffic. Definitely not private enough to not be bothered by groups. I would recommend lots of lakes around this place for better experience with cleaner waters. BC is filled with lots of great places, and this is just mediocre. Best wishes exploring!

Entire shore has been submerged in the water for a couple weeks : *Update* the shore is now visible and you can see about 8 feet of sand

Nice quiet beach after a moderate hike close to town. More: Took the Whippoorwill trail which was classified as Easy on Alltrails but should be classified moderate, if nothing else, to disuade beginners. Physically not challenging but the marking is borderline terrible. We misunderstood a sign and climbed on the right dangerous side of a large rocky area instead of the left. Also ended up off trail in deep old growth and luckily kept our cool. Not suitable for kids in my opinion.

Very clean and quite beach with the only access by a hike, so not many people here, water is clean. Good quite place to enjoy the sun and water on the beach

Beautiful lil spot right off harrison lake . A lil steep for my young ones but they did it all the way around whirlpool loop and back by sandy cove great lil hike

The hike is short and sweet; to the cove beach itself is only 15mins normal pace I timed myself; I am a normal young woman. The steep beginning is only 5 minutes, really not a difficult hike at all

Nice hike, beautiful beach

We were just heading out to the trail when it started to pour so we were not able to get to the cove. It looks enticing so we will try again next time TIP: Dress for the weather and wear shoes with good grip. Watch out for those exposed roots on the ground, as well.
