Camel Rock Access |
| |
From 101 north, ~ 12 mi north of Arcata, take the Westhaven Exit. Turn left under the freeway, and the road will immediately "T". Go right about a quarter mile until you come to the cliff around the right-hand bend. You can check the surf from one of a couple small pull-outs overlooking Camel Rock--you'll see immediately why it's named that. To get down to the beach (~200 feet down), park about 100 yds further north in the larger lot. |

Overview |
| |
Atmosphere |
North coast beauty, off the main highway. Seals abound, very rare GW shark sightings. Sand bar works in late winter and spring, but not every year. When it's going, it can't be beat. Probably one of the more crowded spots in Humboldt County. |
