Headlands and San Pedro Rocks and Devil's Slide when it was still a highway. Many speculate that dark spot on headlands by ocean is a drain or cave, but is just a shallow recess of dark rock surrounded by light rock

The trail is named for a feature of geology: the shale and sandstone are slipping into the Pacific. Sturdy barriers protect the road without inhibiting views.
Even beneath overcast skies, appreciating the sharp contrast between rock and sea demands more time than cars will ever provide.

Enjoy the sounds of the surf and sweeping views from the Devil's Slide Trail.
Typical of the "trail," which is as well-paved, maintained, and generously wide as any two-lane highway … minus the cars.
From just below the high point on old Half Moon Bay-Colma Road, looking towards Gray Whale Cove and Montara.
Views and the general feel of a hazy day along Devil's Slide Trail.
