Pt Reyes Limantour Beach

Limantour beach is great for running. It can get hard when the tide is high, then the sand becomes soft, but, hell, you burn twice as many calories this way. Run to the right or to the left. If the beach is too short of a distance, veer off to a trail that leads to Arch Rock. The options are endless.

This beach is great for anything: picnics, family outings, walking dogs and kids, running, or just walking along the beautiful freezing-cold Pacific Ocean. My recent discovery is the lagoon with sting-rays if you walk to the left of the parking lot. There are also colonies of seals at the tip of the peninsula leading into Drakes Estero through Estero de Limantour. The dunes there are amazing, they make me feel like I am on the set of "Dune" except the sand is real.

Four stars because of the stupid bridge they built and ruined the natural beauty of the swamps. Now it's a muddy mess, which made water fowl and herons and egrets abandon the place, leaving a sad scene. I guess, somebody had to spend the money... Some people just don't get it.
