Lawson's Landing is a great starting-off point for a wide range of outdoor sports. This beautiful area by the Pacific offers a variety of outdoor activities such as kayaking, biking and hiking. The campground is bordered by acres of sand dunes and a long sandy beach, perfect for exploring the outdoors.
Here are just a few outdoor activities available at Lawson's :
Hiking
You'll find almost countless places to wander and explore. The length of Dillon Beach, on the western border of the campground, is a popular and constantly shifting place to walk. Hikers can be rewarded with quite a view at the summit of Little Sugarloaf, to the east of the campground.
Kayaking
Find spectacular views by paddling down the channel in Tomales Bay. Mind the wind and tidal forecasts. Rentals are available in Point Reyes Station.
Wildlife watching
Bird life is phenomenal in the winter when the birds take refuge along the shores of Tomales Bay.
Hundreds of seals sun themselves on the sandbars in the bay during low tides.
Tule elk graze on Tomales Point, and are most visible sunning in the mornings.
Kiteboarding & Surfing
The various sand bars and shore breaks offer spots for surfers of any experience level much of the year. When the wind blows harder, usually in the spring, kite surfing along Dillon Beach is popular, while the area south of Sand Point catches as much wind while having less wind chop and next to no swell, for those who prefer to focus more on the kite than riding waves.
