How to get there: Since we are getting there early in the morning the gate to the parking lot may be locked, but there is an alternate entrance via the road to the right of the main entrance, the road is labeled Heisley Rd on the map but I believe it is really called Coast Guard Road any way follow this road and on the left side of the road there will be an entrance to the parking lot for Headlands Dunes, this is also the entrance used by fishermen. It's marked with the Red Icon on the map. To get directions from your location just click on the Icon, then on "Get Directions"
