Trail System

👍👍 Great entry level trails with upper level geographic beauty. Plant life looks like it's out of a fairy tale, and a little basic wildlife unique to the Redwoods living here, it's a great place for a walk or adventure. Family friendly, although some smoking and other activities can happen a ways off t...

Moonstone Beach County Park

👍👍 I am a local flying dress photographer for "Diamond Memories" in Eureka and I absolutely love shooting and spending time at Moonstone Beach. It is gorgeous and is often full of families and dogs. Lots of rocks to play on and caves to explore. You often see people repelling or surfing as well!

Clam Beach County Park

👍👍 Today was a high tide at 9:30AM combined with a Tsunami due to a volcano in the South Pacific. Not a major issue, but high tides and strong waves were the result. Lots of fresh driftwood has been dumped on the beach as well.

👍 There's a nice little beach with barely any waves for the kids. There's sand dunes and obstacle course for those who like four wheeling. The sand can get a little hot when it's not foggy and the sun is out. We only spent time at the beach, in which case you'll be better with an umbrella or beach ten...

Clam Beach County Park
Park
👍👍 $25 a night per car ($22 for veterans). Several camp sites with fire rings, picnic tables, and large flat spots for tents. Potable water on site as well. We had 2x4man tents with plenty of room. There is also a bathroom but no showers. It's a short walk to the beach and lots of wood available.
