Welcome to Patrick's Point State Park
Thirty miles north of Eureka, a tree- and meadow-covered headland juts into the Pacific Ocean. This is Patrick’s Point State Park, with a shoreline that ranges from the broad sandy stretch of Agate Beach to sheer cliffs that rise high above the sea. A number of “sea stacks,” parts of the mainland that have been isolated by the pounding surf, stand offshore like fence pickets. Patrick’s Point is shrouded in fog much of the year, especially during the summer, when it sometimes does not burn off for days at a time. Crystal clear days appear most frequently during spring and fall. Rainfall averages more than 60 inches a year—most of it falling between November and April. Temperatures are moderate much of the year, with only about a 10-degree difference in average temperatures between summer and winter. Summer highs average 62 degrees, winter lows 38 degrees.
