Go here to get away from all the noise and relax. Apparently, assorted 🐦 birds come here to enjoy the water and peace as well. The small islands 🏝 are cool for the birds to hang out and its nuce to look at. The bridge and views are magnificent here, especially during sunset. I need to go here more often. Great for the kids. Note: watch out for caterpillars and try not to step on them.

Best birding in SoCal, especially in winter. No bathrooms! Unless you want to play frogger and run across the highway to the beach.

Easy, mostly flat hiking spot with excellent views of the Bolsa Chica Ecological reserve. There's something very calming about watching birds interact with the environment as well as with each other; watched one brown gull casually try to steal another gull's fish, only to be sternly chased away. It was quite entertaining.

No payment for tickets or parking when I went which was great!! Saw lots of cute little creatures but the people were kind of annoying, some of them were loud and disruptive to the animals so please be respectful when you come here guys

Very nice visitors center and amazing trails with birds and fish and other wildlife. When the flowers bloom, it’s so pretty.
