This bar is only recommended because it has one of the best views of the ocean and Bodega Harbor.

You can go to either side of the creek, north or south. Sometimes a sandbar closes off the creek and you can walk across it. South has a nice, long beach walk. Beware of "sleeper waves" and do not wade into coves because you can get trapped.
