Tips from the community

Much of the park only really comes to life at night. A number of nocturnal animals call the dunes home, including kangaroo rats, coyotes, salamanders, owls, and bobcats. The area around Medano Creek offers especially good opportunities for night wildlife viewing, as does the dunefield itself.
