Explore Bodega Head’s dramatic coastal loop at your own pace with an English audio tour, offline maps, and stories of nature and history.

About this tour

Take in California’s rugged north coast on a self-guided Bodega Head audio tour, where surf crashes below cliff-top viewpoints and the Pacific stretches to the horizon. This 60-minute walking loop lets you explore at your own pace while naturalist Stephen Nett shares stories of the peninsula’s wildlife, landscapes, and human history.

Follow the route past panoramic coastal views and learn about migratory birds along the Pacific Flyway, seasonal wildflowers, and the San Andreas Fault. Discover the water-filled Hole in the Head and hear how Coast Miwok people lived here for thousands of years. The stories also trace the fishing port at Spud Point and the generations of families who shaped the area. Offline audio, maps, and geodata help you navigate, and the tour begins when you reach its starting point.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 1 review. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Napa & Sonoma
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.1.
