Visitor advice
Go with the useful details
Stay on official paths
Bluff edges can be unstable. Remain behind fences and never approach or climb the edge.
The Bluffs are an area with 11 parks, not one entrance. Bluffer’s Park is a common waterfront option, but check the City map for the experience you want.
Bluffer’s Park parking fills quickly on summer weekends. Consider public transit, taxi, or rideshare.
Swim only at the designated supervised beach and check current water quality.
