The City of Point Arena is a vibrant coastal community on the North Coast of California known for its beauty and small town charm.

Point Arena’s Main Street Historic District hosts restaurants, delis, bars, and cafes. A restored 1928 theater features films and live music and nearby galleries feature local artists. A cooperative grocery, local library, community garden and city park (with EV charging) are enjoyed by locals and visitors alike.

The Arena Cove Historic District provides coastal access, a park, and a municipal pier utilized by commercial and recreational fishing communities. Local businesses include cafes, restaurants and lodging.

The Point Arena-Stornetta Lands of the California Coastal National Monument provide miles of hiking along coastal bluffs. The Point Arena Lighthouse provides a spectacular view of the coastal landscape.

Point Arena is renowned for its two annual events:

  • Independence Celebration Weekend: a spectacular fireworks show followed by an eclectic hometown parade.
  • Harbor & Seafood Festival: local seafood, local beers, and local bands.

Easy coastal access at Arena Cove, the coastal trails of Point Arena-Stornetta Public Lands, and its quaint downtown make Point Arena a jewel of the Northern California land and seascape.
