Point Reyes National Seashore

Die Point Reyes National Seashore ist ein Schutzgebiet an der Pazifikküste im Marin County, etwa 55 Kilometer nördlich von San Francisco im US-Bundesstaat Kalifornien. Sie umfasst nahezu die volle Fläche einer geologisch bemerkenswerten Halbinsel sowie einen kleinen Streifen des Ozeans. Das knapp 290 km² große Schutzgebiet wurde am 13. September 1962 unter US-Präsident John F. Kennedy eingerichtet, wird vom National Park Service verwaltet und von über zwei Millionen Besuchern im Jahr zum Wandern, Zelten und zur Naturbeobachtung besucht.

  • Must visit place in Bay Area. Scenic drive till the endpoint near the lighthouse (which was closed when we visited). Beautiful views of the ocean. Can stop at many places in between for panoramic views.

  • This is one of the most beautiful places in Marin County. The views are spectacular, and the fog always offers a great atmosphere. I definitely recommend Point Reyes as a stop on your vacation.

  • Easy access for families to a beautiful beach. Bathrooms right near the parking area for easy use going and coming 😉. We had small kids who easily walked down and back...and lots of space to spread out. The road to and from is windy so be aware of those who might get car sick but it is a lovely drive. Well worth adding this to your list of great places in California!

  • Nice place with typical great California Ocean views to get away from the city. We were there to see Alamere Falls along the Palomarin Trail (Coastal Trail). It was fantastic. Easy to follow trail which goes inland for a bit where there’s a couple of small lakes & some ponds. Would definitely go again and maybe even camp at Wildcat Camp. Highly recommend.

  • There are 2 small overlook trail towards the lighthouse. One can goes towards the overlook for sealions, and the other one to the extreme end of the cactus trail. The trails has amazing overlook points and one can just sit and enjoy the breeze :) Stay safe of the rodent holes throughout the hike :)

  • One of the best places near the bay area to visit for some gorgeous hikes and view. Strongly recommended. Lot of poison oak in a lot of hiking trails, so better have long pants and shirts just to be safe.

  • One of the most beautiful and incredible drives you will ever take. I’d say this drive feels and looks a lot like Ireland. So much wind. Huge views as far as you can see. Absolutely worth the time!
