Review & FAQ:
Pinnacle Gulch Beach is one of Bodega Bay's best-kept secrets. Few tourists even know this beach exists, but it's actually quite close to Bodega Harbor and is a big hit with the locals.
This is one of the best places in Bodega Bay to come and watch the sunset as the sky starts lighting up with pretty shades of pink and red.
As with other Bodega Bay beaches, lots of large rocks can be found here and there's a good chance of spotting some wildlife too.
