Launch into Adventure from One of California’s Most Beautiful Beaches
Set off from Heart’s Desire Beach, tucked inside the calm, protected waters of Tomales Bay State Park. Whether you’re paddling out for an hour or a full-day escape, this launch spot offers an ideal starting point for families, beginners, and nature lovers alike.
Glide along forested shoreline, keep an eye out for herons, seals, and bat rays, or simply float in stillness beneath a canopy of sky. It’s a peaceful, welcoming way to experience the magic of the bay.
