Located on a spit of sand that divides Bodega Bay, this large campground is frequented by RVers with large rigs who intend to stay awhile. The boat ramp is one of its key attractions and many of the visitors to this campground are ocean fishermen. In the evening, to the east, one sees the lights of the town of Bodega Bay, while to the west, one can experience the radiant sunsets over the Pacific Ocean.

Although the campsites are reasonably well spread out, this campground has few trees and little or no shrubbery; thus, it provides little since of privacy. Party boats provide good fishing for salmon in late spring and early summer, while rock fishing is good the year around. Perch can be taken from the shore in the summer.
