About Timber Cove Boat Landing
A sheltered Sonoma Coast cove with easy access from Timber Cove Campground and the boat landing. It is used for scuba, abalone diving, boating, and fishing, and the landing adds restrooms, showers, and a fish-cleaning station. Underwater, expect cool-water Pacific life, octopus, sea lions, and seals, with the calm cove feeling easiest when swell is low and conditions stay settled. It is a practical local stop rather than a remote adventure, but the coast still deserves respect.
