Hike Whitehouse Creek Beach & Tidepools
Easy Coastal Hike
Whitehouse Creek Beach is the closest destination to Costanoa for tidepool exploration. It is also one of the few beaches protected from the prevailing coastal Northwest winds. We highly recommend checking low tide times before departing!
To reach the tidepools, take the Whitehouse Creek Trailhead to the right of the Douglas Fir Cabins. Instead of taking the trail to the left over the bridge, follow the trail towards the coast/parallel to Rossi Road, veering left through the eucalyptus grove until you hit Whitehouse Creek Road. Make a right and cross Highway 1. Follow the trail towards the ocean and make a right down the stairs to the beach.
