What families say
Book your shuttle or parking reservation well ahead—spots can sell out a month out, though a couple of families got lucky with last-minute slots. The scenery, clear water, and snorkeling get rave reviews, but the trail itself is rocky, slippery, and includes stream crossings, so most reviewers say it's better suited for older kids or families without mobility concerns rather than little ones. Wear good traction shoes, start early, and check weather since rain can make the path muddy and more challenging.
