Black Sand Beach in Shelter Cove--go west off 101 in Garberville along a torturous hour-long drive. That's after seeing The Founders Grove, off The Avenue of the Giants.

The coast is always nice, there's a lot of trails leading to out-of-the-way beaches, just look for a small parking lots along the Hwy 1. Avenue of the Giants, particularly the alternate route off the 101, is great, as would be a dip in the Eel River. Hendy Woods has a nice Redwood patch that has trails, and that is 15 minutes out of Boonville.

Good Luck!

My wife & I after the fest drive when we can the coast, both north & south of Mendo---what IS there not to like??
What a body/mental altered state, and tonic, if one lives in the land-locked areas of the country.

Come to Point Arena! Land of the Giraffes, Zebra's and our own resident freaks winking smiley Oh, and we have a magnificent community theater, and a working pier (fish for free!) and a lighthouse...all this is just a hop, skip and a jump away from the venue! Point Arena Wildlife

Take Mountain road over the mountain to Manchester, then head south for a few minutes and you are in Point Arena, but it will take an hour. As i was told one night in the theater there while viewing a Pink Floyd tribute band, 'In Point Arena, you don't lose your wife, you just lose your turn!'

Love that reggae!
