Sightseeing
The Pacific Ocean, where the river meets the sea -- seals, birds, whales, sea otters, waves, cliffs, and the smell of the ocean. Not friendly for swimming (rough/dangerous surf) but majestic to see. Expect wind! Take a jacket. About a half hour drive from our cabin, through tiny towns and redwood forests.
