Northern California Coast


Duncan's Cove north of Bodega Bay and it seemed like a cool place to camp but all the turnouts were posted with the signs below.

The sign doesn't seem to prohibit "pop-up" campers.
We didn't think that the Sheriff's Department would buy that argument.

Salt Point State Park Camp. We visited several campgrounds in the vicinity and this one had the best sites and views.

Driving up the road from Needle Rock to pavement.

Lost Coast Camp near Needle Rock.

The Needle Rock Visitor Center contains a wealth of information about the area. The old ranch house serves as the park visitor center.

Lost Coast south of Needle Rock headed for the Bear Harbor camp.
The Bear Harbor camp will be a disappointment because it is located in a small valley where the road now ends before it reaches the harbor with no views of the ocean.
