Humboldt Bay, California, United States

4.5 (131 reviews) Spent Ranking #5 in Humboldt County Bodies of Water

Beauty and diversity

When you're in the area, find somewhere to stop and admire our beautiful Humboldt Bay. South end, go to King Salmon and walk the peaceful beach. Gather sea shells or watch the boats enter the jetty. Farther north, turn on C street and park by the boardwalk. Stroll north along the waters edge to F Street and wander into Old Town. If the Madaket is sailing, take a bay cruise. After a nice walk, drive north on 2nd and see the amazing Carson Mansion. Over the bridges of the 255 you'll see Humboldt Bay on your left and Arcata Bay on your right! A beautiful couple of hours!

    Back yard bay
    We live minutes from Humboldt bay, it's beautiful natural setting is one of California's Best places! It's 14 miles long and its 41/2 miles wide at its widest part. It's also the second largest bay on the west coast! Originally used to bring tens of thousands to the Trinity Gold country, then for logging for many decades. Its also the largest Oyster production on the west coast. About half of all California's Oysters are farmed here! It's a bird watchers paradise along with fishing, crabbing, sailing, and much more! As you travel Highway 101 through our area note the true size and beauty of HUMBOLDT BAY!
