The dark sandy, shallow sloping beaches and forest has been a popular recreation area since the 1930's, and historically used by the Tlingits for fishing and hunting. There is a 1/2 mile wood chip trail traversing the southern-most Blank Islands.
The park offers exploring, kayaking, scuba diving, fishing, hiking, and camping. Access is currently by boat or aircraft.
This park encompasses the Blank Islands and a portion of Gravina Island, at the mouth of the Blank Inlet on the East side of Gravina Island (about 4.6 miles directly south of Ketchikan).
If you are looking for a Sandy Beach, this is one of the very few in the area. Accessable only by boat ànd the very gradual grade of beach makes it a great place for kids to play in the water.
Arrived via hovercraft. Great place to view bald eagles and other wildlife.
Quiet and nice views. Visited from a hover craft. A lot of quartz on the beach.
