Hiking Deception Pass State Park - North Beach

A wooded hike from the West Beach area of Deception Pass State Park to the North Beach Parking Area. Enjoy the numerous side trails to the wonderful beach and rock outcroppings along the way.

As one of the state's busiest parks, the beaches can get very crowded, but this trail has relatively low traffic. It's a great way to get close to the beach and views of the bridge without the crowds.
