Point Arena-Stornetta Public Lands

The Point Arena-Stornetta Public Lands are an ideal place to view the sea rocks and islands that comprise one of California’s most magical treasures. Hike more than 1,600 acres of craggy coastline, the estuary of the Garcia River and adjacent beach, and a small island only accessible at low tide. Historic Point Arena Lighthouse is just to the north of the monument, with Manchester State Park and its magnificent beach a few miles away. This beautiful piece of the California coastline is the perfect place for a leisurely hike and picnic with unrivaled seals and whale watching from the bluffs. Speaking of hikes, the perfect way to see these magnificent lands are with a guide in the form of Unbeaten Path Tours.
