On the last day at Duncans Mills we took a drive along the coast, but this time south of Jenner. Before we arrived at Jenner, we headed south crossing the Russian River. |
At the top of the hill, Joe spotted a vender park on the side of the road selling some smoke salmon. |
The first beach that we came to was Goat Rock Sonoma Coast State Beach. |

We parked in Blind Beach parking lot and enjoyed our lunch with this view, |
as the waves crashed apon the beach. |
There were surfer at Blind Beach. |
Dogs are allowed on a leash on Blind Beach. |
As we left,, I took another picture of Goat rock beach from high above. |
I love the colors of the Pacific Ocean. |
There is also information about the trails that are along the coastline. We wished we had come here the first day, so we could have fit in a few trails while we were there. |
This map shows all the beaches south of the Russian River outlet. |

It was quite a walked down to get to the beach. |
Almost there! |
" I'm hot mom, let go back to the car"! |
It was a beautiful day, not too hot or too cold. Just right! For Mallery it was too hot! To be continued: |
