About this swimming hole
Enderts Beach is a hidden cove at the end of a steep mile-long trail in Del Norte Coast Redwoods State Park. Old-growth redwoods give way to a pocket beach with offshore rocks and tidepools. The sheltered water invites a cold but rewarding dip for those who make the hike down.
