Wright's Beach Campground

Can you imagine falling asleep to the sound of crashing waves and waking up just steps from a pristine sandy beach? Wright's Beach Campground, situated along the scenic Highway 1 in Sonoma Coast State Park, offers one of the most coveted oceanfront camping experiences in California. With only 27 campsites, including premium spots mere feet from the water, this campground combines stunning natural beauty with the simplicity of coastal camping.

Each campsite is equipped with essentials like a picnic table, fire ring, and food storage locker. While the campground lacks RV hookups, showers, and potable water, these facilities are available five miles south at Bodega Dunes Campground. The restrooms at Wright’s Beach feature flush toilets, and all campers enjoy direct beach access perfect for picnicking, fishing, and leisurely walks. The surrounding cliffs and nearby Kortum Trail provide breathtaking views and opportunities for hiking and wildlife observation. However, swimming is discouraged due to strong rip currents.

Located just a short drive from the charming coastal town of Bodega Bay, the campground offers easy access to seafood restaurants, kayaking, and even whale-watching during the migration season. For a serene and authentic beachfront getaway, Wright's Beach Campground is an exceptional choice for weekend escapes or extended nature retreats.
