Get ready for a coastal adventure at Wright’s Beach Campground—your seaside base for exploring the amazing Sonoma Coast State Park. We will spend our day exploring the rugged shoreline, hiking the scenic bluff-top trails and searching for marine life in the vibrant tide pools! It's a wonderful chance to enjoy the crisp sea air and make s’mores with friends under the stars as the waves crash along the coast.  

  • Dinner and breakfast included.
  • Campers supply their own camping equipment (except tents).
  • Transportation provided. 
  • Meet at Sycamore Grove Park Ranger Station at 5035 Arroyo Road.
