Parked and launched at Millers dock. Camped at North Pelican beach. Awesome time canoeing at night experiencing the bioluminescent. Will do again soon!

Absolutely beautiful. We stayed 2 nights at the wall beach. We came on paddle boards and had to battle the wind and tide at times. Early mornings and evenings are def better to get across.

Kayaked there. Bathrooms were very clean at Tomales Beach. The bioluminescence was amazing at night. If you're launching your own kayak- Miller boat launch is the parking and launch point. It takes 30 minutes to an hour to get to Tomales Beach. Marshall is about another 20-40 minutes depending on your speed and the conditions (remember to check winds). And you need a permit.

Hiked to Glenn camp through Bear Valley trailhead. Once we got to the campground and set-up our things, we then hiked to the beach through wild cat trail. Next day we hiked back, then kayaked to Tomales beach for another night of camping. Remember to bring enough water and sunscreen!

Kayak camped at Tomales Beach. The toilets were well stocked and clean. Quite a lot of other campers were there but everyone was able to spread out well enough with their own groups. We kayaked around to look at the bioluminescence at night and it was pretty decent if you get away from the lights from campers and especially if you find the seaweed patches which concentrate the bioluminescent organisms. Got rained on overnight and in the morning but not too badly. We also saw a solar eclipse at times in the morning when the clouds broke for a bit. Overall a great experience. Ocean and wind conditions were favorable the entire time, but somewhat choppier on the way back to our launch point due to the rainstorm.

The bioluminescence was absolutely incredible, the beach-camping was ok - though that's partially a result of arriving well past sunset and choosing a beach somewhat at random. I did get a little poison oak, the trails going inland are thick with it, but overall an amazing experience.

Best to carefully pack all food items carefully away in a secure place(not in a tent) so that raccoons will not have any reason to hang around or rummage through your things. We lucked out on the weather and Blue Waters gave us important tips for enjoying our kayak camping trip! There is a lot to see, so beautiful on Tomales Bay.

Rented kayaks at Laine's bait shop in San Jose (cheaper) and launched at Miller beach public boat launch. Kayaked across for 45 minutes, around noon. Not too windy. Set up camp at Wall point beach. Great campsite and private beach. Had a great view of the bird rookeries. No hiking trails were accessible though, from this site. Brought firewood for a beach fire. Great experience, would return, but camp a few beaches further north, which would give us a hike to Mclure beach trail oceanside.

It was fantastic

Boat camping at Point Reyes never disappoints. We stayed at wall beach this year. It is one of the sandier beaches, as a opposed to mud, when the tide is out. Watch the tides though, high tide (5’6”) at night left almost no beach.

Took an enclosed double kayak with my wife on a three day two night adventure. She had never been there before and it was awesome to see it through her eyes. We had Marshal beach almost entirely to ourselves. We even got to see the bioluminescence of the water… AMAZING!!! I would highly recommend to anyone looking for an adventure.

Had a great time camping in Tomales. The only drawback was the need to get a fire permit at bear valley visitor center in person. It would be great if the fire permit could be gotten at the same time as the campsite reservation online. I understand there are spare the air days and days of higher fire danger where fire permits would be restricted. But there must be a way to combine the two.

Launching from Miller Point was very easy. It was a nice clear day to kayak to Tomales campground. Overall wonderful trip.

Wonder-filled experience, connecting with wildlife on this last frontier of The West. Conservation of these areas may well be the greatest thing that the US ever did!
@IgorM448 · Camped on Nov 25, 2021 at Campsite #TBA
The place is beautiful beyond belief. It is unfortunate that one awakens in the morning to the sound of gunshots on Tomales Bay (why is hunting allowed in this very small and unique place?); and then to the buzz of over-powered outboards buzzing across the Bay. Is it time to protect Tomales Bay more effectively and stringently? Result of the hunt, I have found 3 dead ducks.
@NelsonG818 · Camped on Nov 19, 2021 at Campsite #TBA
Amazing place to be able to free camp
@JacobS414 · Camped on Nov 12, 2021 at Campsite #TBA
Truly excellent location. Went in early November and it was very foggy / cold at night. Suggest using synthetic sleeping bag over down, as the down didn't hold up super well to the damp fog air.

I count on our National Parks to renew my spirit. I couldn't be better off than in the hands of our great National Parks Service. I am grateful, Thank You America

Web site was accessible and easy to reserve a site.
@KristinaW128 · Camped on Oct 15, 2021 at Campsite #TBA
Absolutely amazing! We camped on a beautiful beach and woke up to dewy sunrise over tomales bay and watched sunset over the mountains and could hear the ocean crashing just beyond the ridge all night. Amazing water for kayaking. Lovely local establishments for meals, like Nick’s Cove, are around if you get tired of camp food. Highly recommend it all!
@HenryN336 · Camped on Oct 3, 2021 at Campsite #TBA
Kayak camping at Tomales Beach was really really wonderful. It was a beautiful day in October. After we set up camp we hiked to the top of the hill and watched the sun set from the western side of the peninsula. Then we paddled around for a couple hours looking at the biolum. We lucked out with a beautiful clear night and calm waters. It was a great trip.
@LiamM669 · Camped on Sep 29, 2021 at Campsite #TBA
One of the most amazing places to camp in the world. Boat in for a peaceful and amazing experience. Beware of rapidly changing wind and tide conditions.
@PierreC563 · Camped on Aug 26, 2021 at Campsite #TBA
Beach Kayak camping. Very clean, not a scrap of trash on the beach. Coyote and raccoons came visiting.
@ApolloniaH712 · Camped on Jun 20, 2021 at Campsite #TBA
Careful about those tides when boat-in camping. Great place.
@SaraJ562 · Camped on Jun 17, 2021 at Campsite #TBA
Great location but just know if you want a quiet camping experience, find a smaller beach not accessed by noisy motor boats. We arrived by kayak early at Marshall's Beach and set up camp before we realized motor boats (three of them) were allowed to stay there and motor back and forth (pulling skiers) during the day.
