Eagle Cove is located on the south coast of San Juan Island, near American Camp. Make sure you take the walk down to see the beach after finding the cache!
Rock and sand tidepools at Eagle Cove include a variety of marine life. The sandy beach can grow and shrink with the fluctuating tides and seasonal cycles, so conditions will vary depending on when you visit. The rocky area to the right as you look out from Eagle Cove is a favorite place for sea mammals to pull out and get their rest and daily dry period. Bring binoculars if you want to see them up close. Orca whales commonly pass by Eagle Cove on their way up the coast. Fishermen frequently come here to fish for salmon. Offshore is a kelp jungle with plenty of fish, and octopus and wolf eels in the deeper water. Just before the American Camp park entrance turn right onto Eagle Cove Road. In a ½ mile or less, look for the Eagle Cove parking area on your left. Eagle Cove is in a quiet residential community – please be respectful. To get to the beach, you can walk down a short (0.1 mile) moderately steep trail in a narrow ravine.
