Winter vacation Dec-Jan      Tamales bay and Bodega bay

I  found 2 nice places in Bodega bay:

Harbor Cutie
Cottage at Schoolhouse Beach


1 Kayaking in Tamales bay.
2 Clam digging in Bodega harbor, there is lots of critters in these sulferous mud flats, clams, worms, octopi, etc.  followed by a long cleanup.  Then check out UC Davis marine station
3 Chill-out beach and tide pool day at the various sites.

I count 3 days.
