A note about the images: These California Coast photos and pictures of the beautiful California coastline feature some of my best natural coastal landscape images and have been taken over many years trips to this fantastic world-famous region. The California Coast, for those who don’t know, stretches from the Mexican border in San Diego County and runs nearly 850 miles to the Oregon border in Del Norte County.
The California Coast photos in this gallery contain pictures of well-known iconic California coastal landscapes, many of which were taken during to course of production for several of my books. Among these locations are some of my favorites from the North Coast, which covers the Sonoma and Mendocino coastlines with its towns like Bodega Bay, Jenner, and Point Arena and Fort Bragg. Further north is the Redwood Coast which covers the coastlines of Humboldt and Del Norte Counties, with great places like the Lost Coast, Shelter Cover, and Crescent City.
Pictures of the Bay Area California coast photos go from Moss Landing in the middle of Monterey Bay and runs north through the areas of Santa Cruz, Davenport, Pescadero, Half Moon Bay, to the San Francisco coastline near Ocean Beach. Across the Golden Gate is the popular Marin coast with the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, Rodeo and Muir Beaches, Bolinas, and of course, Tomales Bay and the magnificent Point Reyes National Seashore.
Pictures of California’s Central Coast photos cover the area of Carmel and the Monterey Penisula, with wonderful and popular tourist locations like Point Lobos, Asilomar, and the 17-mile Drive with it’s famous Lone Cypress Tree. From there the California coastline follows along the Big Sur coast, past Cambria and San Simeon, into Pismo Beach, and extends south to the California Coastal Riviera around Santa Barbara. The Southern California Coast photos feature places like the Channel Islands National Park, Catalina Island, Santa Monica, Long Beach, Newport Beach, Corona del Mar, and the San Diego County coast, including Torrey Pines State Beach and Point Loma.
