Review:

Drake’s Beach is another little gem of a beach located in the Point Reyes State Marine Preserve near Inverness in Marin County. This is a truly remote beach but oh, so worth it when you take the trouble to seek it out. Because the beach is protected by the point at Chimney Rock, the waters are generally calm enough for water sports like kayaking and stand up paddle boarding. The beach is wide and sandy and long enough to offer wonderful beach walks. At Chimney Rock you can follow a trail to a lookout point where you can watch seals cavorting.
