Point Arena Pier

Point Arena became a small city when it was a logging town in the late 1800's. Today, with a population of less than 500, it is a local center for shopping, the arts, enjoying nature, hospitality, and education. The pier at the Point Arena Cove is a working pier for commercial fishing, but also provides access for public boat launching and viewing sunsets. Near the pier you will find shops, restaurants, and inns. You can also enjoy the beaches and tide pools.
