There are some…read moreunique things like the Maiden of Deception Pass sculpture along with some pretty cool ride pools. The beach is nice and lots of colorful rocks can be found. There are many picnic tables and grass areas where you can relax and have a meal or just let kids run their energy out. There is a nice trail to the point and it is an easy one. It's fairly short and not much uphill to it.

We spent the morning at this beach and had a lovely time. The beach itself is sort of a pebble…read morebeach and although low tide was around 7:00 this morning, when we arrived just before 9 the tide was still quite low. It was perfect for viewing the tide pools. We saw lots of crabs, tadpoles, shrimp, fish and even a little sea urchin. I had forgotten how much fun it was to do things like this and it made me super nostalgic for my childhood. There were lots of people with dogs, walking along the beach and the pathways. I also really loved the Maiden of Deception Pass; both the statue and the story. On the walk from the parking area, we saw lots of birds and rabbits and it is just a really beautiful place to visit. If we lived in the area I would come here often and I recommend a stop to anyone who hasn't yet had the pleasure.

Awesome beach and associated park. The beach is very accessible - parking is roadside with a nicely…read morepaved sidewalk, and then just a few steps down and you're on the beach! There's a bunch of driftwood among the soft sand. There's enough sand to walk on to not worry about accidentally getting wet, but also the water isn't a large distance away. I even saw a harbor seal swimming in the water right from the sidewalk, to give you an idea of how close things are. The beach is contiguous with Willows park. The public washrooms have a shower area to wash off sand as well as toilets and sinks. There's a playground and grassy areas if you want to play around or lie in the grass. Do note that this area is dog friendly. During my visit, all of the pooches were well behaved so I wouldn't be too worried about it though.

This was my third visit to Lummi Island, but my first visit to Sunset Beach on 10/22/20…read more Sunset Beach is located diagonal from The Willows Inn, well marked from the main road, with decent trail access to the beach, but not ADA for wheelchairs/walkers. I purposefully took a much earlier ferry to Lummi Island to guarantee time on the beach. No amenties like picnic benches, bathrooms, or BBQ/fire pits at this pocket beach. Well kept, no litter. Just you communing with nature. It was a sunny autumn day with a brisk wind. Beautiful views. Walked along the beach. Collected tiny rocks of interest. Chatted briefly with a guy mooring his small boat. Perched on a log soaking up the sun. Glorious.

It is a small beach and there are lots of signs on different entrances showing "private" so please make sure to use the access available to public. While at it you can also check out one of the finest restaurants in PNW called "Willow Inn" but you do need to make a reservation for dinner.

There's quite a few roots and there are short sections of wooden boardwalk between collingwood beach and pebble beach. Very little parking with only about 4-5 spots and people pull their cars along the road when full. The road leading to the lighthouse is also quite narrow and seems to only fit one car at a time. If you're doing the seawalk trail, there's 4-5 spots to park by cape roger Curtis lighthouse, pebble beach, and collingwood beach with the only outhouse by pebble beach. The lighthouse was much smaller than expected!

The sign says that someone will come by & register you if you don't make a reservation online. Guy walked by, said morning, kept walking. Was that the guy I was supposed to pay? Did they jot down my plate number? Should I expect a bill in the mail when I get back to Iowa? At the end of the day, it was a beautiful area with no real amenities to speak of at very low prices. I'd probably seek something elsewhere next time, but it was a good first night in Canada.
