The Atlantic pushes up against coral limestone and the wind writes the coastline’s rhythms as you step from an air-conditioned vehicle onto the East Coast’s wild edge. Guides lead a compact group along narrow coastal paths where waves throw spray against towering cliffs and small fishing skiffs bob in sheltered coves—this is a hike that moves you through place as much as across it.
