Finding the parking spot is a little tricky (its on the right hand side of the road just passed the stairway down) and there isnt much parking. That said, the path down ends at a train track. Theres a little beach down to the left and another little beach down to the right. Theyre both quite small but delightful. Definitely a nice spot to go when there arent a lot of people. Bear in mind, its steep going down and a bit of a workout coming back up. Enjoy!

The limpet holes are amazing and fascinating. The kids had fun looking at all the sea life. A definite must!

This place is truly beautiful year round. Great place to bike to using the interurban trail. There are bioluminescence late August/early September when its been hot.

This place is so wonderful for hikes and good views. Love the trails and the view of the water at the bottom. So much fun for a nice walk and look out at the water, possibly even a swim in the Summer. Great for kids that need to get their energy out, or for some friends that wanna go hammock camping. So great for photography as well if youd like! Just prepare yourself for the climb back up, it can be a little tiring.

Great little hidden spot. Super quiet with a beautiful view. Its an amazing place to watch the sunset. It can be tricky to find as there are no markers for it on the street so definitely keep maps pulled up so you know where to park. The walk down is steep so bring good shoes and be careful if its wet. I would highly recommend anyone check this out if youre around that area

Good place for visit with kids to explore biological aquatic fauna. Small hike down to rocky beach via wooden stairs. Clean water.

After you go down the 1/4 mile trail of switchbacks and cross railroad tracks you come to a small beach split in two by a rock formation. Unfortunately it appears high school kids graffitied the rocks. The view is lovely but the beach had garbage on it and looks like its a party spot. I sure was annoyed climbing up that grueling trail on a hot summer day.

Small parking lot with no signs posted and only able to accommodate a handful of hikers, although theres additional parking at several connecting trailheads nearby such as interurban and North Chunkanut Mt.Trail was very maintained, several other trails leading down and pretty steep as well. Once reaching the bottom, youll come towards the tracks of the railroad and you have to cross them to access the beach.Larabee state park posted signs to not cross the train tracks and the injuries have occurred in past due to oncoming trains. Just be careful and keep your eyes on the tracks, listen dummy!Several paths leading different direction and different sheltered coves, both have sand and large rocks. Quick little cute walk and definitely will come back on a sunny day.

A beautiful place to relax and enjoy nature! Though if the tide is low make sure youre belongings are not too close to the shore!

This was a really fun family hike! A bit steep on the way down, but our 4 year old daughter did it, no problem. The beach was amazing at low tide, with lots of sea life, tide pools and gorgeous views. We will definitely be back!

Beautiful short trail down to the cove.We combined this with Woodstock Farms nearby for a total 3.5 miles.Lovely swimming areaVery scenic

Its a great place to hang out with friends and have a picnic

Beautiful cove, especially for wintertime sunsets. Just enough parking, just enough of a walk.

Overall nice spot. Its an easy hike down to the water with supported steps where necessary.

Amazing views, good trails. Just needs a bathroom or outhouse. Lol

Very nice hike in, local tanning spot. Lots of sea life. Make a picknic enjoy life.

Beautiful short hike close to town. Its decently steep, but still totally doable for someone out of shape, however it is a little unsteady at some spots. It gets a little confusing when you hit the railroad tracks where youre supposed to go, bit veer to the right, and youll pick up the path again by the little beach.

Indeed a hiden treasure cove. Water is so calm and clear.

This is one of my favorite beaches in Washington. Its a bit of a hike up and down. However its well worth the view. Its a very small Beach so its kind of secluded. Ive never really seen it be too busy. Theres a sunny and a Shady Side of the beach. Occasionally When the tide is out you can find all kinds of sea life like crabs, starfish, clams, and more. There are also some tidepools there that are really cool to look at. If youre looking for a quiet place to read or Draw I would highly suggest teddy bear Cove. Just be careful when crossing the train tracks to get there.

Peaceful little place!! Absolutely beautiful!

Cute little hike down to the beach. Very steep but not far, my husband who has knee issues had no problems. We came here hoping to see the purple starfish that are supposedly common here but we couldnt find them. We did see other sealife though, crabs and nearly microscopic animals. The coolest thing for me was seeing a train come by on the tracks that run along the beach.

Such a fun place. Trail leads all the way down, just cross the train tracks at the bottom.

Truly magical place. These scenic views never get old, and continuously amaze me year round. Would like to mention that in warmer temperatures especially, this is a fantastic spot to view marine life. Sea urchins, sea cucumbers, sea stars, crabs, and other various critters in the water easy to see.

Really pretty, not too many people on a Sunday. Interesting little holes and crooks to walk around in and a general beautiful view of the bay

This gentle hike has some nice very views. I loved sitting at the lookout points and daydreaming. What a simple and enjoyable way to spend and hour or so.

Wow, fantastic view. Two tiny beaches with great views perfect for a quick picnic. Also a bluff/giant boulders for a raised view. A bit steep, but easily doable. My wife had a new hip only 6 most. ago, and she made it down and up. **Great magical experience seeing the bioluminescent life, like somebody tossed super sparkly glitter in the water along the beach!! Only there August & September, not quite sure on that point, but that is what I read. Like I said, MAGICAL!!**

Pretty easy walk from Chuckanut down to railroad tracks/beach. Takes maybe 10 minutes, easy for families and anyone who is relatively new to hiking. Would consider a more challenging nature walk

Youre car window will probably get bashed in but its a good spot for young lovers and those alike! :)

Great place for kids and dogs. 3 places to check out once you get down the little hill but reasonable short hike for families

Beautiful place to visit. Short 15 minute hike.

Fun little hike. Beautiful

Went to see the bioluminescent and it was magical.

Come at low tide for some excellent tide pool combing

I loved this place because it was so pretty and just so fun to hike on. Also the trail leeds right to the beach.

Trail was a bit hard but thats bc I dont go out much 100% worth it the views are amazing

Beautiful views not to bad of a hike. Nice little beach to hang out at.

Be prepared for a steep hike back up! The views here were amazing! The beach is beautiful and secluded which makes it very peaceful. This spot makes for a great picnic location. Not a long hike but definitely more challenging for those who have difficulty on steep inclines. So worth it though!

Not handicap friendly at all, so just know that, but what a dope spot. Never really has much litter around. People always say hi on the trails. people bring cute dogs. The beach and cliffside are hella pretty fosho fosho. Highly recommend.

Great place for kids.

Spent an afternoon sneaking through the forest just off the beaten path, took pictures of mushrooms

Best pizza in town, hands down

Beautiful view of the bay from two beaches & a higher up overlook (good spot for a hammock). Short, but steep hike down from a small parking lot.

Parking can be tough and sketchy, and the hike in is pretty steep. A fun little hike and a great get away not too far out the Chuckanuts

Bioluminescence was so cool!

Fun place to take the kids exploring and tidepooling.

Beautiful views. You do have to cross some railroad tracks yo get to the location.

Beautiful views of the harbor

Small , short hike, beautiful view

Teddy Bear Cove is an iconic Bellingham area site.Once youve made your way down from the small pull-off on Chuckanut, and after a (relatively steep) hike, youll have to quickly cross the train tracks (theres a big fine if youre caught loitering!).At the water, youll have access to two beautiful rocky beaches with stunning sunset views. During Late August and Early September you can also stop by after the suns set for the bioluminescent light show in the water!Aand as a friendly reminder - please do your best to stay on the trail (to keep it in stable condition) and, as always, keep the forest and water litter free!

Its a nice little spot. There can be lots of people though, and a train goes by fairly often.

Beautiful Little Spot for wildlife, SUP boarding, and walks along the beach.

Small walking trail leads you to this scenic beach in only ten minutes! Definitely worth the detour if you have time on your journey. Camping is not allowed but there is a great elevated lookout point shaded by trees offering expensive views across the bay. Be aware you need to cross a single lane active railway track to access the beach, very safe though!

I wish the trail was a little longer. And that you didnt have to cross the train tracks. But its a very nice view!

Aside from being a great boat anchorage, Teddy Bear Cove is one of the many reasons Bham is such a great place to live!

Beautiful ️

Beautiful scenery

Great little park on the beach, and not many people going there. Hard to spot from the road, but worth the 5-minute hike

Short hike to get there, loud train passes through. Somewhat crowded a lot of evenings. Great view and on the water.

Beautiful spot but more litter than I expected for WA :-(

Beautiful place to watch the ocean and relax

Great view be careful on the hike down to the beach. Its steep so its good to keep that in mind so you dont tire yourself out before hiking back up.

Beautiful and relaxing place to watch the sunset or just relax with mother nature.

Great first date with the love of my life!

Short steep hike to the water. Seems to be a popular spot with the locals.

I feel like i will appreciate this more when i bring a date with me to enjoy it with.

Amazing views of the islands and Bellingham Bay The cove the stars at night

Nice views and great place to walk or jog

The best place to enjoy a warm sunny afternoon on the beach. Its a small hike down to the water.

Nice beach with lots of sea life like anemonies and sea stars

This is a small hike down the road and across the railway track to a secluded rocky beach. Great place for pets to chill out, but that means dogs are off leash a lot. Hence rating 4 stars. There is however a stairway just after crossing the railroad tracks, which gives great views of the sound. Parking on the side of the road is limited to about 10-12 cars, so might be a problem on crowded days.

Amazing road to an amazing spot. The drive is as much if not more impressive than the views.

Amazing place!I hope I be back soon...

Its absolutely stunning. The switchbacks are a little tough coming back up but the view is absolutely worth it.

Short, graduated trail, the walk down is pleasant and easy when its not rainy and slippery. The walk back up will let you know just how out of shape you are. Great scenic views and perfect for a short hike.

Beautiful, but crowded.

Great place to view a sunset, and at low tide has lots of poos to explore. You will have to cross a railroad to get there, and I suggest parking at the Chuckanut Trail head and using the inter-urban trail to get there. Its not a long walk and the parking is a bit more secure. There is parking closer but its street parking and fills up.Its all well worth it for a great spot to relax and enjoy the view.

This is one of our favorite hikes. It is an easy Trail for kids, even for a two year old. Such a pretty beach and area to play! There are some great rock formations. There is either parking right up above the Cove or you can park at the first Trailhead on Chuckanut drive. If you park at the first Trailhead it is a mile walk to the cove. Make sure to bring your sunscreen and suits this summer and maybe some food to cook out with as they have the perfect area up on the rock formations for a picnic! Cheers!

Beautiful place to watch sunsets

Great place to take some take out and a date to. Great views from the top of the rocks across the train tracks. Little bit of a hike in and out. Just take it easy and youll be fine.

A little over-rated in my opinion, but good for a quick hike

Awsome place to go and nude sunbath!

Beautiful beautiful spot! In the summer go for the bioluminescent algae. Amazing. A Bellingham must see.

What a magical place! While absolutely freezing after dark, those who brave the cold get to experience super cool glowing water.

Went at night to see the bioluminescent algae. It was a magical experience. Definitely visit if youre in the area in the late summer

Short easy hike thats easy for the whole family. Beautiful cove.

Omfg dont camp here unless you are ready for a serious hike. Its murder!

Lots of stuff to poke and prod. The creatures are very patient with kids :)

Not as cool as you think, but still its a cute little beach close to Bellingham.

A short, but fairly challenging hike (coming back up), but always worth the view!

Tidepoolz are dope AF, stay on main trail, trains are loud

Quick little hike to the beach. Theres tons of other hikes around here but whats cooler than a hike through the forest to the beach and passing by a train track??!! Id check out Clayton Beach. Its right down the road by Larabee state park

Easy short hike! Beautiful views!

Was really fum! Will go again

Very secluded and peaceful. Nice clean shoreline.

This beach is a Bellingham treasure! Famous for once being the local nude beach, we were there in sub freezing temperatures, no naked hamsters. Parking at the trail head or hike from fairhaven along the inter urban thru the 100 acre woods.

Very good Park

Awesome view! Not much beach, but its Washington, so you take what you get. Take care crossing the tracks! The only thing is that the trail to the beach is muddy (like everything else) after even light rain.

Gorgeous! Not a bad hike down!

Delightful short trail, careful near the train tracks.

Train noise. Otherwise good.
