You have to go here and sit outside at the mouth of the Russian River and watch the seals and birds. It's authentic, unassuming and situated on a million dollar piece of real estate. Simple menu but not top rated food. Get coffee, chai or Thai iced tea and a baked good.

Best outdoors on the patio because the bar can be very noisy and the formal dining room feels somewhat institutional, (though they have improved it by adding booths). Very good menu.

This is new on the scene, but so far it's a hit. Kosho has umami flavor covered with their unorthodox sushi and Japanese styled entrees and sides. Don't miss the Savory Japanese Pancake and try at least one of the rolls. Excellent!

You could spend several hours here. There are very nice walking paths, the ruins of WolfHouse and an interesting museum located in The House of Happy Walls, the home Charmain London built after Jack's death. Lots of local history here and tales of their world travels. Much of the park is set in oak woodland and there are remnants of the innovative farm that once thrived on the property.

This bar is only recommended because it has one of the best views of the ocean and Bodega Harbor. The food is standard, overpriced bar food, and for drinks you may want to stick to the tried and trues. The decor and lighting is nothing to write about, but the view, especially around sunset is striking. There is live music on Thursdays, some of it quite good.

You can go to either side of the creek, north or south. Sometimes a sandbar closes off the creek and you can walk across it. South has a nice, long beach walk. Beware of "sleeper waves" and do not wade into coves because you can get trapped.

You have to pay a fee to park right at the beach but this beach is very nice, even in winter because it is south facing. Popular surf spot when the waves are good, nice long beach for walking.
