Limantour Beach, Point Reyes National Seashore
Limantour beach, point reyes
beautiful yet seclusive, well kept beach just a few miles south of Point reyes: Limantour Beach
A long, narrow spit of sand, bound between Drakes Bay and an estuary, is a bountiful wildlife area. Scores of shorebirds feed in the wetlands and along the beaches during the fall. Ducks abound in winter at old, freshwater stock ponds created during the peninsula's ranching era. Harbor seals are often seen bobbing offshore in the gentle waves or basking in the sun's warmth. Mother gray whales guide their calves along the shoreline during the spring. Dogs are allowed on a 1.8-meter (6-foot) leash on the southeast end of this beach. Dogs are not permitted to the northwest as this area is protected habitat for harbor seals and the endangered snowy plover.

Point Reyes Limantour Beach 4
This is Limantour Beach after the fog lifted. There were a few people, and dogs, there but not too many. Dogs are allowed South of the entrance to the beach but not allowed North of the entrance because the land flattens out and quite a bit of it is covered/uncovered by the tides. This makes it very popular with many birds and so it is protected.

This is Limantour Beach, part of the Point Reyes National Seashore. I hadn't seen the Pacific Ocean from California since I was 11. The last time I saw the Pacific was from the coast of Japan. I waved over to Japan!

Alamere Falls 9/11/2017 - Point Reyes National Seashore, CA
Alamere Falls is a beautiful waterfall in Point Reyes National Seashore. It consists of upper and lower falls flowing into the ocean. It cascades over steep bluffs at Alamere Creek Beach. Upper falls separately fall along the stream on the ledge of the bluffs. Lower falls cascade down the bluffs directly into the beach.
Alamere Falls hike starts with Coastal Trail from Palomarin Trailhead in Bolinas. The hike to the waterfall is about 8.5 miles RT, and there is a slight elevation loss/gain, but not significant. Trail is in good condition overall, except some uneven eroded sections here and there. After passing two lakes (Bass Lake and Pelican Lake), you come to a cairn (arrow sign of rocks) pointing to the route to the waterfall. The path looks like a narrow tunnel covered with vegetation. Be wary of poison oak as you go through the narrow path. If you opt out taking the path to the waterfall at the cairn, there's a route recommended by NPS....continue Coastal Trail north to Wildcat Camp and trek south along the beach at low tide to reach the waterfall.
Scrambling down/up the shale bluffs from the path to upper falls and further down to lower falls at the beach can be a bit challenging as it is steep. Make sure of secure handhold and footing as you go.
Bring enough water to stay hydrated as half of the trail is exposed and provides no shade. Parking is free and restroom is available. Plan the journey according to tides for viewing the waterfall from the beach.

Limantour Spit, Point Reyes
4/21/2018
It's about 2 miles from the parking to the tip of the spit one-way. The crowd quickly thinned out after I walked away from the parking and soon I was all by myself; more solitary than the spit of Stinson Beach nearby which I skipped in this trip.
