Bright white skies, soft sand and wildflowers galore are the essential elements to an adventure. After a long desire to drive up the North Coast, we packed a picnic and headed to Caspar, California in search of fresh air and cool vibes. While the ocean washed up seaweed along the shore and the flowers rooted in the sand danced in the wind, I couldn’t help but appreciate everything the earth provides to us. We set up our beach blanket and had a mini-wine tasting of our own on a mild Saturday. For most traveling on Highway One, Caspar Beach can easily be missed as bigger towns such as Fort Bragg or Mendocino are popular destinations. Lucky for us, the beach was close to empty and the dunes were just begging to be enjoyed.
The atmosphere at this hidden beach north of Mendocino was beyond relaxed. Because there is a campsite across the way, the main store here offers fun activities such as ocean kayaking and stand-up paddle boarding. We didn’t have any wetsuits and judging that everyone in the water had one on, we opted to stay dry and cozy up in the sand dunes. We discovered this location by following a small ‘Coastal Access’ sign on the side of the highway and after driving an additional 2 miles, we ended up here.
What is your take on quality wine packaged in a box? Do you like the idea or do you prefer the classic bottle? Is planning out trips or being spontaneous more your style? Where’d you go for your latest trip?
