Bodega Head is the prominent rocky point that has a rugged coastline that protects Bodega Harbor from the west.
From Bodega Bay to Jenner there are 27 beaches that you can visit. You will see stunning deep coves, hidden beach at the bottom of Pinnacle Gulch, a large state park campground and coastal dunes, and a long narrow beach that is great for beach-combing and fishing.
Goat Rock Beach is located between Goat Rock Point and the Russian River along the Sonoma County shore near the town of Jenner. There are resident harbor seals towards the mouth of the river mouth.
Jenner is surrounded by the Jenner Headlands and Goat Rock State Park. The lower Russian river empties into the Pacific Ocean at Jenner.
The park encompasses one of the first underwater parks in California. The shoreline of the 6,000-acre park features rocky promontories, such as Salt Point, that juts out into the Pacific Ocean. The inland portion of the park features both grassland and forest areas.
A mystical 10-mile stretch of California coast and extends about 1 mile inland.

There are miles of hiking, biking and horse trails and a Scottish-style golf course.
Bodega Harbor is a small, shallow, natural harbor on the Pacific coast of northern California. Geologically, the harbor is formed by a depression of the San Andreas Fault. The natural harbor hosts two marinas, a boat launch, two fishing ports, campground and several waterfront restaurants.
Fort Ross State Historic Park brings attention to the varied stories that have occurred here through the centuries, including the long formation of the coastal natural history, the centuries past and present of resident Kashia Pomo people, the Russian colonization periods (1812-1842), the Ranch era (1842-1972), and the over one hundred year era of this area as a protected resource as a State Historic Park.
