What started out as a wharf in 1866 is now a bonafide destination. In addition to a quaint fishing village vibe, the area features several antique shops, art studios, fresh seafood markets and delightful restaurants all within strolling distance of each other. For the more adventurous, a diverse and one of kind ecosystem known as Elkhorn Slough beckons. Home to more than 340 species of birds and the famed California Otter, Elkhorn Slough is an ecological jewel well worth a visit.
