It is home to beautiful geology.
As you might be able to imagine from the name of the beach, it features two bluffs. What is a bluff?

It’s perfect for long walks and beach activities.
The beach is two miles long and flat. That means it’s easy to walk and find shells and rocks (such as agate and jade) as well as beach glass, or even go clamming!

71 reviews and 175 photos of DOUBLE BLUFF BEACH "We took the ferry on a day trip on a recommendation from a fellow dog lover. The ferry costs about $15 each way so be warned. The line to get to the island took us about 1hr 15mins but on the way back we just hopped right on. Once you get on the island its about a 15-20 min nice semi-scenic drive.
