Situated along the spectacular Northern California coastline 280 miles north of San Francisco, the City of Eureka is one of California’s best kept secrets. The city is bordered on one side by beautiful and functional Humboldt Bay, and on the other by mountains lush with giant redwoods which offer a reminder of the area’s rich logging heritage.

A variety of cultural opportunities are available in Eureka, including active artisan, arts, and theater groups. Outdoor recreation is abundant with activities such as boating, sport fishing, kayaking, hunting, birding and backpacking all available close by.

To look for great things to do while in our community, we offer these sites as reference.
