history, views ... everything but dining ;o). While the War of 1812 was happening on the east coast, the Russian American Company advanced south from Alaska to California. this historic park documents this period plus prior and later area history.
Bonus: great coastal views from the headland & a wonderful beach below.

A nature reserve that boasts soaring redwood trees.
I think of Armstrong as Muir Woods without the crowds... or tour buses... or reservations. It's a quiet local park on anything other than a summer weekend, which is how a redwood forest should be experienced. After all, these are trees that are taller than skyscrapers and have been standing in silence since the time of Charlemagne.
There are basic flat trails for simple strolling that loop around the best of these groves for easy ambles with small children. More serious walkers can take longer trails that climb into the surrounding oak forest. And for the real enthusiasts, I recommend spending a day hiking up into the Austin Creek SRA. The wilderness views of the Sonoma backcountry go on for miles. Do start early and bring plenty of water.
The park has a simple gift shop / nature museum that is worth visiting. There are also ample picnic tables and group sites, if you bring your own lunch.

A rugged and recommended whale-watching promontory along the California coast.
It was very cold and windy (at least 20mph) that day! as you climb up the trails (they are everywhere) the wind almost knocks you over watch your camera lens because it will be full of salt water spray so bring something to wipe it off with.
It was just beautiful no whales (darn)

Built in 1928, this 9-hole golf course, nestled among majestic redwoods, is a classic.
I think this is the prettiest golf course in Sonoma County. The redwoods are spectacular and the course is always in pristine condition. The 9 hole layout is quite a challenge...the redwoods provide quite an obstacle and the course design is extraordinary.

Sonoma Canopy Tours offers two courses - both course feature 7 ziplines, 2 sky bridges, stairs, and end with a rappel to the forest floor. The Forest Flight Course is offered during the day & night flights are available. The Tree Tops Course features a longer zipline and is perched above the Forest Flight Course.
We came out here to do this for my fiance's birthday. It was so much fun! We did the tree top tour and the views on some of the zip lines were amazing. The guides, Nathan and Bryan were awesome!! We felt totally safe and not nervous at all. They had jokes and were knowledgeable and made us feel comfortable. The whole experience was totally worth the drive and the money.

When you walk in the smell is wonderful. Everything tea related you can imagine, as well as bulk tea. There are many, many items packed into the store, but if you look carefully, you'll notice there is a theme that works. I love this place.

Challenging windsurfing beach located in Bodega Bay.
This beach is sheltered from large waves and is excellent for beach coming or just wading. The water is very cold, and great white sharks are in the area , so swimming out from the shore is not recommended. But we took our son here when he was a toddler, so it is a safe beach to play and wade in with no dangerous waves.

Six miles along the Sonoma Coast, this recreational park includes hiking and horseback trails, plus an underwater reserve for divers.
About an hour north of Jenner this State Park provides an incredible view of the ocean and access to wild life.
You can see Sea Lions resting on the rough rocks adjacent to the shore. The park has a small visitor center and restrooms.
The entrance to the park is not well marked so you may miss it. Watch for small signs.
A must if you are in the area.

Appointment only so don't make the drive there without having a reservation or you'll be disappointed... We went there the day after Christmas... Beautiful day to sit outside with a view of rolling hills of vineyards, a geyser from Geyserville in the distance, and a beautiful glass of cab to ship. They have the different flights to taste. That night for dinner we shared a bottle of their best cabernet. It was worth every expensive ship!
