Point Reyes National Seashore
The peninsula delights the visitor with wild coastal beaches, dramatic rocky headlands, rich estuaries, and open grasslands and forested ridges.
54699 acres
Open Access
Marin County
Managed By: United States National Park Service
Because it is on a different tectonic plate than the east shore of Tomales Bay, the parent rock produces a difference in soils and therefore to some extent a noticeable difference in vegetation. Visitors can discover over 1000 species of plants and animals including Tule elk, elephant seals, and gray whales passing offshore on their annual migrations.
