On our way
to California, we stopped in Bandon for few errands and saw the ‘Beach’ sign!
And some beach it was!
We had a
reservation at a campground by the beach in Crescent City (variation on the
Walmart parking) but decided to try to get a site in the Mill Creek National
Forest State Park. We got there early and got a site by the creek (!). It is a
wonderful place for tents and trailers (less sites). Being in this forest of
giants is incredible, however the pictures do not depict well the feeling of
being surrounded by those trees. We did not have any hook up and for a longer
stay, we would have run out of power as there was too much shade to recharge
the battery with the solar panels.

We spent
the next day by the beach in Crescent City. It is a small town with a nice marina
and very large wave breakers. We took a very long walk on the very long beach.
The tide was coming in and it was fun to watch small soft shellfishes coming
with the wave and burying themselves in the sand as the waves receded. We had
lunch on the pier by the seals. It was very fun to watch them play and fight
for the best spot!

We also had
a walk on one of the wave breakers by the lighthouse. This is an interesting
one as you can only access it at low tide.
