Been in this area for a long time., This place is vast and it is funny how one can end up focusing on a chosen few At the expense of missing out on the beauty of unexplored territory. One day!

Yes you should! We were able to fit a lot of fun in one day and go to Armstrong Redwoods and Bodega Bay in the same day because they aren't too far apart.
