Frequently asked questions

Basic information:

  • Public walks are referred to as Draws

  • Scheduled time is when path will be available to be walked

  • Allow about 20 minutes for your walk

  • Schedule says 2 hours for walk, but the tide determines when it ends

​

Are designs planned out ahead of time?

  • The labyrinth design is drawn freehand working with the beach as a fresh canvas.  The path for each Draw unfolds organically on the sand.

  • Our overarching theme for the year is love.  Each Draw also has a specific theme which ranges from ocean to celestial to Zen.

  • When completed, the labyrinths are one continuous path with no dead ends or wrong turns.

  • Walkers will begin at a specific starting point, meander through the labyrinth on a single path and finish at the exit.

  • A Dedication Circle, separate from the labyrinth is usually available for visitors to write their name or dedicate their walk to someone else by inscribing their name in the sand.
