Hiking

This overlook offers a panoramic view of the Pacific Ocean and the surrounding area. Bodega Head is a beautiful long Peninsula that juts straight south, creating a protected lagoon that shelters Bodega Bay and the harbor. It is a prime spot to observe the whales' migration. It has a substantial population of marine mammals, making it a great place to spot and capture photos of the many pelicans, harbor and elephant seals that inhabit the area.
