    Madaket - Timber on the bay

    A nice tour around the northern (Arcata) bay. The tour was billed as "birds & Eco" but I think it…read morewas the same historical narration given on all tours. She did makes some general bird references, told a few personal stories and lots about the history and some current factoids. All in all a great way to spend $30 and 1.5 hours. BTW - we were told to arrive early if obtaining a seat was important when we called to ask about the tour. There did seem to be limited bench seating. We chose to sit/lean on the roof of the cabin towards the bow.

    Is it awful for me to say that the best part of this 75-minute cruise around Humboldt Bay is the…read morecocktail you can order from the self-billed "smallest licensed bar in California"? I'm not sure what significance that factoid has on the actual cocktail. I just know It wasn't complimentary as part of the $32 ticket. No, cocktails ranged from $8 to $12. Since Jamie W. and I were on vacation, we went to town and ordered a couple of $12 Anchors Away. The description listed three different rums and pineapple (photo: https://bit.ly/39Qylj0). Having something tropical while bracing Arctic-level winds may seem ironic, but it made the trip go faster. Nothing against the industrious two-woman crew, but the historical narration was a bit dry to listen to while completely sober. The coconut rum certainly brought the timber industry to life. Next time we'll take advantage of the $15 cocktail cruise. Cocktails and no information to retain. RELATED - Lost on the Lost Coast?

    Had a great time touring this amazing place. Shawn, our tour guide is so good at her job…read more This is a very unique opportunity to learn not only about tools and craftsmanship from years gone by, but also on learn more about the Eureka area. Viviana and Eric Hollenbeck were charming and generous with their time. They're genuinely kind folks with fascinating stories. The tour is partially upstairs so those with limited mobility may miss a bit but the majority can be accessed even for those who are wheelchair bound.

    I was visiting my brother in Eureka last month, and we toured the Blue Ox Millworks and Historic…read moreVillage. What an amazing place! The village is a collection of buildings relocated from other areas, and they are dedicated to types of craftsmanship. There are SO many areas in the buildings to explore! They have woodworking, ceramics, glassworks, printing, signage, weaving, blacksmithing, and other crafts. The crew even built a replica of the hearse that carried Lincoln's coffin for the memorial trip from DC to Springfield, 150 years later. They also hand-crafted a redwood table for President Clinton's Presidential Library. Because the buildings are working sites, visitors must be careful as they walk through each area. Thankfully, all the walkways are of sturdy recent construction--even the catwalk on the second floor of the main building. Tours are led by knowledgeable guides, and visitors may have the opportunity to see craftsmen at work; on our visit, there was a gentleman working on a sign for a local ballpark. He stopped what he was doing and talked through the process of converting an artist's sketch to a finished, billboard-sized sign. It was fascinating to see! The grounds are lovely and have views of Humboldt Bay from the top of the rise. There are gardens planted in various sites around the village, and it is very pretty in the spring. For a unique experience of immersion into craftworks, I definitely recommend a visit to The Blue Ox!

There is Table Bluff Lighthouse which is a very small Lighthouse but cute all the same. It is kept up well and is one that lighthouse buffs may like. Nearby is a fishermans memorial where you can see a list of people who have been lost at sea in the area over the years. There is a large fisherman statue there as well as part of the memorial. Nice stop to make if out and about taking in the sights around town.

My most recent visit, Dungeness Crabs are in season after a delayed start! This small commerical marina actually has several docks running alphabetically, A through G - signage on the road frontage letting the passersby know what the mornings catch is and today it was our amazing local crab and our world class Kumamoto oysters, these petite beauties are a famous staple on the north coast waters here on Humboldt Bay. A marina coffeshop with restaurant are on site that has okay food and a full bar, there is also a charter house where some fishing vessels can be reserved by the hour, half day, day or longer. There is a Fisherman of the Sea memorial to all those who've made the ultimate sacrifice, working on the north coasts unforgiving and often dangerous waters. Ample parking at all the different docks. The coast guard also maintains a presence at this marina as well. The public can visit the docks and enjoy the views of old town waterfront, of the marina and Humboldt Bay out to the Pacific Ocean. A cool marina, where you can purchase freshly caught seafood right off the boat. Definately worth a visit and stop if you like fresh seafood, big commercial fishing boats, or just being on the water. 4 Stars 00669

Also, they give you exactly what is needed to paddle in Trinidad so you remain warm & comfy. I was so impressed with our guides, Nick and Alex, and their local knowledge of seabirds, marine mammals, and intertidal species. Whales are cool, but there are also a lot of other really cool animals & birds in Trinidad Bay. And these guides know just where to take you. They were not afraid to take us into a little rougher waters, when we asked them to, likely because they are so skilled and experienced. I also really appreciated all of the paddling guidance they provided making sure I was using my core/legs more than my arms. I was with a very large group and the guides handled everything with such class and professionalism. It is a step above any outfitter I've ever paddled with. We are really lucky to have them in Trinidad to help us access some of the most fantastic coastline along the California coast. They also do a great job interpreting the California Coastal National Monument! All of those rocks and islands are part of a statewide national monument that runs from the Oregon border south to Mexico! Wow! What a treasure. Thank you Kayak Trinidad for providing A+++ service where it is needed and appreciated!

It was also so nice that the kayaks were all set up and we didn't have to carry them! Would highly recommend for kids and adults!
