Manchester State Park

Manchester State Park is a state park of California, United States. It includes 18,000 feet of protected beachfront on the Pacific Ocean in Northern California on State Route 1, 7 miles north of Point Arena. The park features sand dunes, flat grasslands and five miles of gentle, sandy beachfront. The park is noted for steelhead and salmon fishing in the park's two streams, Brush Creek and Alder Creek, as well as the driftwood that collects in the catch basin created by the gently curved coastline. The 5,272-acre site was established as a California state park in 1955 and takes its name from Manchester, California, seven miles north of Point Arena.
Aside from the coastal views, Manchester State Beach consists of grazing lands with flocks of sheep, and herds of cattle. Blue Irises, baby blue eyes, lupines, poppies, and sea pinks are featured in the park’s variety of wildflowers. Just off shore, the San Andreas Fault runs into the waters of the park.
