Added by Presidential Proclamation on March 11, 2014, after a huge outpouring of community support, the 1,665-acre Point Arena-Stornetta Unit is the first on-shore portion of the California Coastal National Monument.
Coastal prairies, dramatic coastal bluffs and abundant bird life highlight the Point Arena-Stornetta Lands. This is a working landscape where cattle grazing exists in harmony with hikers and wildlife watchers. The unit spans the coastline from Arena Cove to the Garcia River, p’da hau and can be reached through one of three local access points.
