California - Mendocino Headlands State Park

Hundreds of acres of undeveloped seaside consisting of rugged coastline, quiet beaches, beautiful walking trails, sea arches, hidden caves, cliffs, wildflowers in spring, whales, marine life, and miles of unspoiled beauty, Mendocino Headlands in California has a lot to offer for landscape and wildlife photographers. Mendocino Headlands Trail is about four miles in and out, winding along the coastal cliffs. It provides breathtaking views of the coastline with gigantic rocks with arches and tunnels with crashing waves beating against the cliffs. Multiple overlooks along a trail provide fantastic vantage points to capture the beauty.
