A safety corridor starting at mile 3 and ending at mile 5.5 along Dunes Drive will be in place until further notice. Driving through the safety corridor on Dunes Drive is allowed, but stopping, parking, or exiting a motor vehicle is prohibited unless given expressed written consent or directed by a law enforcement ranger. The area south of Dunes Drive within the safety corridor is closed to all foot, horse, and other traffic. This safety corridor closure is for public safety and includes the closure of the Interdune Boardwalk trail. For alternatives to the Interdune Boardwalk trail and questions about how the safety corridor might impact your visit, please visit the parks visitor center. The visitor center hours change throughout the year. Please visit our operating hours page to find the visitor center hours during your visit. The partial park closure may be reimplemented at a later date to continue to support the recovery effort of the recent US Air Force mishap in the park. Please continue to check the park alerts for road closure updates. ![]() NPS Photo |
