Pirates Cove is a secluded, sheltered cove on the south side of the Point Dume headland, reached by a short scramble down from the bluff. Protected by the point, its water is often calmer than the open beaches nearby, and its tucked-away setting has long given it a hidden, off-the-map reputation. There are no facilities, and access takes a little effort, which keeps it quiet and scenic for those who seek it out.
