Doran Camp Ground

August 28th, 2011 | Category: Local Activites and Events

Doran Beach is one of the most popular beaches in Bodega Bay….there is a long flat stretch of beach to enjoy, and there are often hundreds of birds along the shoreline.  It’s a great place for kids to play, and adults to relax or enjoy water activities or kite flying.    Saw a video that was done on the Camp Ground, but it gives you a good idea of the beach itself, so when you plan your trip to Bodega Bay it’s definitely something to check out!

The campground consists of 150 sites with 20 walk-ups.  There are no hook-ups, however there is a dump station, which makes it very convenient.  Doran Beach is the perfect family get-away spot because it is incredibly kid and dog friendly.  Dogs do need to remain on a leash at all times, however they are welcome to play and walk along the beach.  Quiet time ranges from 10 pm until 7 am, which is ideal to take away worries on non-kid friendly parties, etc.

Doran Beach in Bodega Bay

October 2nd, 2009 | Category: Local Activites and Events, Wildlife in Bodega Bay

Doran Beach is one of my favorites…for so many reasons. Here’s a picture from the south end of the beach, it’s at a medium tide so we couldn’t walk into the rocks. At lower tides it’s fun to explore all the nooks and crannies. But either way, it’s always beautiful. There are 2 miles of flat beach in a horseshoe shape. It’s very popular because it’s easy to access for surfers, kayakers, kiteflyers, horseback riding, walking, jogging, or just beachcombing.
