Wishbone is full of wonderful fresh made dishes. We love their champagne shakers with breakfast. The best short stack pancakes around according to my husband. I love their breakfast plate with hollandaise sauce over poached eggs and vegetables. We haven't been their for dinner, but the place is always packed so it must be pretty good too. They make their own bacon, grow their vegetables....
Cozy, fun funky little restaurant with a fun funky

Jenner Beach has Kayak rentals and little food places. If you go to Goat Rock, just up the road, you will find park parking and possibly a 'walk' if on a crowded day. Usually there are seals and their pups in a small area at the north end of the beach. There usually are Dossiers there to answer questions and steer you away from getting too close to the seals.

Stinson Beach is our favorite family 'go to beaches'. Parking lot is just over a dune and opens up to a nice beach. The town is just a street or two over with shops and restaurants.
