Point Reyes National Seashore Campground

Beautiful park. Well marked trails. There were a few trees blocking trails, but we went right after a big storm. Visiting the park headquarters (Bear Valley) on our way in turned out to be a good call. A helpful ranger showed us tide charts and recommended a few beach spots not marked on any maps. Both campgrounds we stayed at were in great shape - picnic tables, food lockers, and potable water. Bathrooms were nothing fancy (vault toilets), but they were well stocked and maintained.

Point Reyes always delivers, no matter what season! We saw a herd of eight Tule elk by Wild Cat Campground, so you don’t necessarily have to go to the elk preserve at the northern end to see these guys. Solid wildlife food bins at each campsite help protect all your food and scented items from getting chewed by wildlife. We enjoy posting up at one campsite and doing day hikes from there - with the myriad of trails and loop options you could stay at one campsite and see a huge array of habitats and landscapes doing a variety of day hikes. Thank you park staff for keeping the campsites and trails/signage so well maintained even during the storms and fires!

Wildcat campground is amazing, very close to the sea. First part of Coast trail from Wildcat into direction of Coast campground is amazing.

Beautiful seashore with stunning views. Minimal people in the off-season was a bonus.

Wildcat Campsite 7 is not very level but it is relatively sheltered from the winds. Note that despite the picture on recreation.gov NPS has removed the grill. You'll have to bring your own gas stove.

Alamere Falls is great. Mind the tides.

We spent one night at Wildcat Camp and one night at Sky Camp. Wildcat is always busy--it was busy this time too, with most of the sites occupied, and the site nearest us occupied by a large group of college-age boys who had clearly brought in some beer! So it was a little noisier than we'd have liked. But the setting is spectacular and the amenities are great. Clean bathrooms, running water, and even garbage so we don't have to pack out our own. We had a beach fire the first night since we'd gotten a permit for it (which you have to get at the visitor center the day of your fire). Sky Camp is my favorite of the camps in Point Reyes. The views are so beautiful from all the sites, and for whatever reason it is always less busy. We had only two others in the whole campground! It's windy, and the bathroom's a bit farther, but the solitude makes for really lovely camping.

Breathtaking. Geologically tumultuous. An elaborate array of fauna and floral. Kind and courteous staff. DO IT.

Beautiful campsite. Be aware of coyotes, spotted 3 on 3/2/23 within the campground near the pit toilet and near the campsite. Ran off when I talked loudly to them, but they're around. Very chilly and windy but worth it for the view of the sunset.

Site 6 seems to have been graded badly at the tent area. I'm not sure if this was because of the recent rains, or some other factor. It should not take too long to level.

Gorgeous views
