Right in our own backyard are the scenic and top-rated Manila Dunes and our own slice o' heaven North Coast Beach! The Peninsula's dune system, which stretches north to Humboldt Beach west of Arcata and South to the jetty, is one of the most interesting and dynamic areas in the region. There are hikes that start at the Friends' of the Dunes' Humboldt Coastal Nature Center (right up the street), which is well worth a visit in its own right. The center offers a wealth of knowledge of the local ecosystem, bird-watching, preservation efforts, and is a non-profit we support through proceeds. Friends of the Dunes offer guided walks every other Saturday and there are wetland trails and miles of walking through the dunes. The dunes are also beach adjacent so a fun beach day can be planned as well. The Manila Bay Disc Golf Course and Community Park is a couple minutes away walking and fun for any disc golf enthusiast. The park has a nice view of the bay and its the perfect place to be sandwiched between both bodies of water, seeing how even though they're so close, the bay and ocean have such different ecosystems. Plan to come out to the dunes around 30 minutes before sunset to get some great golden hour over the dunes and make the beach in plenty of time for one of the best sunsets of the North Coast!

A quick easy beach to reach from the farm (15min drive). You will often times have the beach and dunes to yourself.

No fees. The sandy beaches in Manila and even the more accessible one in Samoa are usually an easy place to "socially distance." Access to the Manila beach can be gained from the Manila Dunes Community Center on Peninsula Drive. From there it’s about a one-third mile walk on a sandy trail through the dunes to Manila Beach. The beach stretches north and south for miles offering great beachcombing and shoreline walking opportunities. Take Highway 255 from Arcata or Eureka to get here. Peninsula Drive is a loop off Highway 255 (New Navy Base Road). To get to the easily accessible Samoa beaches, head south on 255 at the Samoa Bridge.

These are the dunes in front of your space. You can explore for miles out here. There are different hiking trails you can take that explore native plants and offer beautiful views of the ocean and bay.
