Private Day Hike- Rialto Beach Tide Pooling

About this activity

At low tide, you will marvel at the endless tide pools full of sea stars, anemones, crabs and other creatures. Perhaps you will be lucky enough to spot migrating whales in the distant crashing waves, as well as sea otters or sea lions. A couple miles down the beach is Hole-in-the-Wall, a massive, natural arch that you can walk through, as the tide allows. Our hike offer the opportunity to extend the tour past Hole-in-the-Wall, should you desire to explore further. Be sure to pack an extra layer, and shoes that you do not mind getting wet, as the Pacific Ocean can be deceptively chilly.

Tide Pooling: Our Rialto Beach Tide Pooling hike is available every day listed, but tidal patterns may vary. The hike can be enjoyed at low or high tide but if your intention is to join us to see tide pools, we advise booking a day with low tide in the morning (between 8:00 AM and 12:00 PM). Please use the link below to help plan your visit.
