Beautiful, relaxing and educational.

Bike it instead, much more fun

Take a tour on a bike through earthquake park, it is much more enjoyable and gives much better atmosphere to the coastal trail along which the park lies. Someplace on 4th between C and D rents good bikes and free maps to get you out there. Quite the experience.
