As a visitor you may be headed to our rugged coastline, which has been a draw for filmmakers, artists, visitors and folks looking to relocate . Many remember that the television show “Murder, She Wrote” was filmed in the town of Mendocino, or that the film Overboard was filmed in Noyo Harbor . We have a rich history of filmmaking on the Mendocino Coast and throughout the county of Mendocino .

Depending on the route you take to get to the Mendocino Coast, you will be amazed at the diverse landscape along the way . You will likely see roll-ing hills with gnarled oak trees, old rustic barns with sheep, cows and horses roaming the open space, giant redwood trees, meandering rivers, vineyards, apple orchards and the amazing Pacific Ocean .

The majority of visitors to our county seek to visit the Mendocino Coast . Many discover the redwood forests found along Highway 20 and Highway 128 when traveling west from Highway 101, plus the beautiful wine country along Highway 128 and a solar beer brewery in the town of Boonville .

Up and down our coastline, on Highway 128 and Comptche-Ukiah Road, are amazing state parks, plus towns and communities with architecture from days gone by . Our county coastline borders Sonoma County to the south and Humboldt County to the north .

Day Trips In and Around Mendocino CountyIf your time is limited, here are a few ideas to maximize your sightseeing.

n If you only have one day to sightsee, check out:

Mendocino Coast Botanical Garden (2-4 hours)

Point Cabrillo Lighthouse (1–2 hours)

McKerricher State Park and Glass Beach (2–3 hours)

Hike into the redwoods at Russian Gulch State Park (2–3 hours)

If you take Highway 1 from the south you will first enter Mendocino County in the artistic town of Gualala, which hugs the coastline and has great small shops and restaurants . Driving north through Anchor Bay, you will find yourself in Point Arena, one of four incorporated cit-ies in the county . Point Arena has a pier, an art deco-style theater, some Victorian architecture, and the Point Arena Lighthouse, just to name a few highlights .

As you continue north you will be dazzled by the beautiful scenery the Mendocino Coast offers . Manchester Beach, Irish Beach, Elk, Navarro, Albion, Little River, the artistic and historic town of Mendocino, Caspar, Noyo Harbor, the city of Fort Bragg, Cleone, Westport, and Leggett are full of beauty, charm, and cultural and historic points of interest .

Our communities continue to find ways to become more sustainable, green and organic . Mendocino County leads the world in organic wine-growing, with more than 3,500 acres of certified, organically-farmed wine grapes . Growing organic means growers have taken better care of their vineyard soils . Organic farming is also popular for fruits and vegetables in our county and, on the Mendocino Coast, many restaurants utilize these locally grown and organic ingredients .

With such a large and diverse area we hope that you will come back time and time again to enjoy all that is here . The Mendocino Coast Chamber of Commerce and Visitor Center is here to help guide you to lodging, restaurants, activities, shopping, and services . We have more than 550 members in our database, and our extensive website is a great resource for your trip planning . Go to www .mendocinocoast .com to learn more about all we have to offer .

Once you arrive on the coast, we have a great Visitor Center located at 217 South Main Street, in Fort Bragg . We are open Monday through Friday, 9:00 a .m .–5:00 p .m . and on Saturdays 9:00 a .m .–3:00 p .m . (closed for lunch 12:00 p .m .–12:30 p .m .) . We hope to see you soon!

Blink and you’ll miss the downtown . But slow down and you’ll find a store for picnic supplies, a hotel that offers meals and lodging, and an area rich in logging history . An active local community, organized as the Westport Village Society, wants to make sure their town and history aren’t forgotten . Each year, the Westport Village Society sponsors an annual Mother’s Day toy duck race . The Westport Volunteer Fire Department hosts lively barbecues and other events throughout

the year . Nearby, you’ll

find the state’s northernmost winery and several bed-and-breakfast inns that provide a cozy respite and gateway to exploring the 7,500-acre Heath and Marjorie Angelo Coast Range Preserve, or a hike along the Lost Coast in Sinkyone Wilderness State Park .

The beaches, big cliffs and state parks north and south of Westport provide 180-degree ocean views that are nothing short of spectacular . On a clear day you can see the Lost Coast to the north and Fort Bragg headlands to the south . From here, Highway 1 heads north for six more miles before it turns inland and east toward Highway 101 .

The of-ficial date of the establishment of Fort Bragg was June 11, 1857 . Its purpose was to maintain order on the reservation .

Mendocino village is situated on a peninsula and surrounded on three sides by picturesque wildflower-covered bluffs and crashing surf . Established in the 1850s, many of the New England-style Victorians here have been lovingly restored into romantic bed-and-breakfast inns, world class restaurants and quaint shops .

Best known as Cabot Cove, Maine, in the TV show “Murder, She Wrote”, the village is actually a national historic preservation district . A brochure to guide you on a walking tour of historic houses is available on Main Street at the Ford House, the visitor center for the Mendocino Headlands State Park .Guides can also be obtained at the Kelley House Museum on Albion Street .

Big River Beach, just below the village, is a popular spot for walking, and it’s a great place to view or photograph spectacular sunsets . A state park trail east along Big River is popular for watching wildlife, walk-ing, running, and riding bicycles and horses . You can also paddle upriver for miles in a kayak or canoe .

Or, just stroll and shop on Main Street where you will enjoy sweeping ocean views, including watching gray whales during their annual migration from December to April .

Just north of Mendocino is Point Cabrillo Light Station State Historic Park with a working lighthouse, marine exhibit, gift shop and two museums .

Picturesque Seaside Village Mendocino

Mendocino History: Fast FactsNamed Boodle (“a place where river meets the sea”) by the local Pomo Indians, Mendocino was briefly known as Meiggsville during the early days of the first lumber mill built by Henry Meiggs of San Francisco . Meiggs and New England lumberman Jerome Ford first came to the area in search of salvage from the Frolic, a Baltimore clipper bound for San Francisco that wrecked a few miles north at what is now Point Cabrillo Light Station State Historic Park . Meiggs and Ford found no salvage but discovered something of far more value: the forests of redwood trees . A mill was established a short time later, and the town was later named Mendocino City .

Tiny Community, Big Heart

Population: 1,035 Albion

Like all the rural communities that dot the Mendocino Coast, Albion has a unique personality, a place with its own history and com-munity . Locals refer to the Albion area as the Albion Nation .

In addition to a passionate community, there is a market, hardware store, volunteer fire department, post office, a weekly farmer’s market, some great restaurants, a cliffside inn, a llama ranch, and a small com-mercial fishing operation at the mouth of the Albion River, which also offers camping facilities, kayak and canoe rentals, and a store and café .

Located between the towns of Elk and Mendocino, Albion had its start in 1853 when English sea captain William Richardson

built a home and a sawmill . Although the mill was active for some seventy-five years, the town remained small .

Albion is also home to the last wooden bridge in operation along the Pacific Coast Highway, the Albion River Bridge, which was constructed from salvaged wood dur-ing World War II .

Breathtaking Farmland and Artisan Farms

Anderson Valley Population: 1 ,370

20

Buried deep within northern California’s coastal redwood groves, Anderson Valley provides a beautiful setting with lush greenery that is ideal for wineries and farming .

The drive in and through the valley is one of the most breathtak-ing in California, moving from rolling, oak-covered hills in the east, to pastureland, vineyards and orchards in the valley proper and culmi-nating in towering redwoods at the west end, then opening out to the vast Pacific Ocean .

If you stop and stay in the valley, you are likely to hear the old slang language being bantered about . Boontling (the “language of Boonville”), a peculiar lingo that was created to be used in private conversation by valley farmers in the 1880s, grew to be the primary language in the valley over the next forty years, and it can still be found, if you know where to look and listen .

Anderson Valley offers a chance to experience some extraordinary cuisine . There is excellent lamb and grain-fed beef, possibly even some local wild game like venison, quail or wild turkey . There are more than a dozen varieties of apples still grown here, as well as

pears, olives, grapes, and wild mushrooms . And, of course, there are a wide variety of beverages created here, from delicious beers, delectable wines, and sumptuous ciders, all made by world-class artisans .

Elk/Manchester Population: 366/585

The quaint seaside village of Elk is the best-kept secret on the Mendocino Coast . In a few short blocks are inns, restaurants, a community center and post office, shops, a history museum, state park and spectacular sea stacks with views that rival California’s Big Sur coast . Elk is known for its romance, and many couples choose to hold their wedding here .

Manchester State Park takes its name from the village of Manchester, located on Highway 1 about seven miles north of Point Arena . This is an area of rich grazing land where flocks of sheep and herds of cattle add a pastoral note to some of the most spectacular coastal scenery in the world . The works of man are definitely secondary to pounding surf, screeching gulls, and grazing animals that dominate the scene . Manchester includes a post office, the Manchester Grange,

and a multi-use store with groceries, building supplies and general mer-chandise . A county road north of Manchester leads past Manchester KOA Campground to Manchester State Beach . You can walk for miles between the surf and sand dunes .

Point Arena is the county’s smallest incorporated city, and offers lodging, restaurants, shops, a community library, a campground, and the Art Deco-style Arena Theatre, which produces a number of live shows every

month . You can see performances by musical groups, stand-up comedy, magic shows, dance and theatrical productions and movies, including first-run films . In January, the Arena Theatre hosts the Berlin & Beyond Film Festival .

Arena Cove is home to the Point Arena fishing pier where local fishermen bring their catch .

The 105-foot-high Point Arena Lighthouse, with its giant first-order Fresnel lens, is a popular backdrop for photographers and movies . The museum and gift shop at the lighthouse are

open all year . On your way to the lighthouse (on Lighthouse Road) stop and walk along the cliffs in the Stornetta Land Trust open space . About a half-mile south are some former Coast Guard homes . Just before you get there, turn back and look down at the waterfall pouring into the ocean—an incredible photo opportunity .

Gualala is Mendocino County’s gateway from the south, bordering Sonoma County along the Gualala River . Although just a few blocks long, this quintessential coastal town is a vibrant artist’s colony focused around the Gualala Arts Center . While there are exhibits at the Arts Center year-round, local artists have an annual tradition of opening their studios for public tours, offering a behind-the-scenes look at their work and their creative processes .

At the town’s south end, a big sandy beach is sandwiched between the outlet of the Gualala River and

the Pacific Ocean . The river offers a perfect place to canoe or kayak . Gualala Regional Park is a sanctuary with a wildlife lookout and visitor center, and accords expansive coastal views and quiet walks .

You’ll find galleries, supermarkets and numerous restaurants .
