Bird Island Overlook: a Half Mile Hike with Views and Ruins and Plant ID

This is a great add on to the Point Bonita Lighthouse trail. It’s a wide dirt road leading out to a bluff high above the pacific ocean. The hike features spectacular views of the ocean, cliffs, Point Bonita lighthouse and Rodeo beach. It also has awesome bird action (bird Island is a Pelican stronghold), lots of plants, and there are World War I and II ruins along the way.
