Description
The trail starts atop a bluff above the north end of Rodeo Beach. Continue along the open coastal trail making sure to heed the warning signs about steep cliffs and drops. From Tennessee Point, you'll be rewarded with an expansive ocean view along with a couple of coves. There is a picnic area at the point as well. The trail is gravel through the first half and then solid dirt for the rest of the trail.
