The Mendocino Coast

Rugged Coastline, Towering Redwoods, Renowned Wine Country

Mendocino County reaches from the western rugged coastal ocean cliffs and beaches to the eastern arid hills of Ukiah. From the south to the north, Highway One winds its way up the Mendocino coastline past miles of breathtaking views and dense coastal forests. Somehow this unique stretch of coast has escaped the rapid development of the west coast and still holds strong to a sense of nature and romance. Here you can find hidden sea coves, windswept bluffs, secret little hotels, and sweet smooth wines nurtured by the coastal fog. Come breath the ocean air, listen to the crashing waves, and fall in love with the Mendocino Coast.
