One day was not enough to explore this fabulous park. The dramatic lighthouse, white cliffs of Drake's Beach, manageable hikes to lagoons and seashore, fascinating exhibits at the Visitors Center, so much we didn't have time to see. Definitely go. More

Loved North and South Beach with hills of wildflowers dropping down to the ocean. Ocean very furious...we stayed far away. Nice to look at but be cautious. More

My husband and I took a last-minute trip to California from Phoenix, AZ the weekend of April 13. We had to scrap our original plans of hiking in Yosemite because of a major snow storm there. We ended up in Napa/Sonoma for the first two days and then decided to drive to the coast. We saw Point Reyes National Seashore... More

This large national park is a real treasure. There are many trails that fit all needs. Great for an all day hike, and not too strenuous. The birds and other wildlife are amazing, and the views spectacular. Best seen with a car or bike. There is food in the park available. The lighthouse is at the top of very steep... More

We took the National Seashore drive and made many stops along the way; Stinson Beach, Reyes Point Lighthouse to see the whales, ChimneyRock to see the sea lions on the beach..hundredes of them. Beautiful farmland on the cliffs overlooking the ocean was surprising! It was a fantastic day and a nice way to see the most we could in one... More

Prepare for a long, long drive with potential car sickness! Once there, it is beautiful. Take a picnic - this is a not a place with restaurants or services. More

The view is amazing, and there is a pull out on the trail where you can see elephant seals hauled-out. More

There is so much to do in Point Reyes, it's hard to do in a weekend. The lighthouse, Elk Preserve, many many great hikes, overlooks to see the Elephant Seals, Sea Lions, and Harbor Seals! So much to do and see. More
