Salmon Creek State Beach

Bodega Bay

🏄"a great wave by Northern California standards" (Sonoma Magazine)
🪵Driftwood sculptures everywhere — "people were making apartments out of it"
🚗North lot is free but steep; Bodega Dunes access easier for mobility needs

Catch a solid wave at this raw Sonoma Coast break where locals gather and driftwood sculptures dot the sand. The surf ranges from family-friendly near the creek mouth to rowdier breaks down south.
