Description

The South Shore Trail closely follows the bluffs on the southern end of the state park. From Sand Hill Trail take the steps downhill. After half a mile you reach Weston Beach which has a number of amazing tidal pools. Be careful not to step on the fragile life in this area. Head further south and pass Hidden Beach before you reach the parking lot at the southern end of the trail.
