It was almost 6pm after we visited the Point Reyes Lighthouse. Since there are a lot attractive beaches in Marin County, we decided to visit the closest one, Drake Beach. This beach has a lot of park spaces and the toilets are pretty clean. In West Coast the places with ocean view are usually facing West. However, Drake Beach is located in Point Reyes National Seashore and it is facing South. I know it may sounds wired but since the beach is surrounded by cliff, you can find a natural shaded space in the afternoon on the beach. What a good news to those forks who are sun-sensitive but love to have a sun-bath!
