The easy and worthwhile hike to Bull Point takes hikers through Point Reyes' coastal prairies and rich estuarine wetlands. The trail winds between Creamery and Schooner Bays on its way to the lookout point at Drakes Estero. Be sure to bring binoculars as the Bull Point Trail is known for its rich variety of bird and marine life. Low tide enables visitors to investigate the beach and hidden alcoves along its base.
