Romantic fine dining in a coastal remote location. Fresh seafood and top wines. I especially love the venue, cozy and in a house with eclectic decor. Order the app board with salmon and home made bread, yum! Plan for dinner here as the perfect way to end a long day at the beach and exploring the redwoods...but bring some nice clothes to change into ;-)

Have you ever eaten at a Jewish Mexican bagelry? Probably not, as this place is only one of a few in the country. If you love bagels and all the toppings possible, you will want to stop here for a satisfying lunch. Also, their solarium dining area is a perfect place to get cozy with a cup of mexican hot chocolate on a cold wintery day.

Not the fanciest pizza parlor, but we think it is definitely the best pizza. If you like goat cheese then you MUST try the "Hot Goat", it is insanely yummy, (you won't want to share, trust me!)

When dining on the Eureka waterfront, this place does a good job of providing something for everyone with their diverse Italian/Japanese menu. However, for a real party treat, book a table in their Teppanyaki room! You will laugh all through dinner.

Straight up traditional seafood done well, in a historic building on the Eureka waterfront. Great place to enjoy fresh oysters and they make a mean Bloody Mary.

Say yes to cider and pie, you wont' regret it. Located across from the Arcata Co-op, this pie business shares their space with Humboldt Cider Co. in a venue called "Bittersweet". It's a match made in heaven. Also, the venue strikes a hip city vibe with reclaimed material decor with lots of industrial chic. Plus the patio is the place to be on a sunny summer day. You will almost forget you're in downtown Arcata.

Hands down one of the best farmers’ markets in the state..if not the country. I’m not just saying this because I am a farmer! :-) Even if you don’t need groceries, going to the Arcata farmers market is an “event” not to miss. Live music, delicious hot food booths, house and garden plants, fresh flowers, great vibes and SO MANY SMILES, is reason enough to check it out. Plus, our market is one of the only in the state that is 100% locally (Humboldt) produced agricultural products.

Our favorite causal dining spot in Trinidad. Beer, locally sourced food, fish, indoor/outdoor dining and home made ice cream! Also, if you are feeling hungry for a guilty pleasure meal, try the mashed potato waffle cone (with the works)!

Our little winery not only produces some of the best wines I've ever had, but the grounds are straight out of a fairy book and rivals any wineries located in Napa or France! Open house is usually available most Sundays and includes food options such as salad, charcuterie, and pizza from their wood fired oven.

When I have a gift to buy for a loved one (or myself!) I go to Old Town Eureka. From unique clothing boutiques, to antique shops, to home goods, to novelty game shops, to old fashion bookstores, you are bound to find something special here. Also, some yummy places to dine when your feet get tired!

Some of my favorite shops in Humboldt are located around the Arcata plaza. The “Plaza” store is a home goods wonderland, “All Under Heaven” will transport you to Nepal, “Garden Gate” has many feel good products, “Solutions” has anything you need for the hippy in you. And many more to explore..

The town of Blue Lake is quaint and adorned with some nice old architecture, but the real attraction is that it is located along the beautiful Mad River. Find a spot to enjoy a picnic, go for a run along the levy, or visit the fish hatchery. Easy access at the Mad River bridge.

Arcata is home to an extensive wetland ecosystem that not only provides fish and wildlife habitat, but which also digests all of our septic waste naturally! Take the kids to the interpretive center to learn more about life and water cycles and enjoy a walk on the many trails that wind throughout the marsh. I promise it doesn't smell bad! Great for running and bikes.

Enjoy a lengthy but scenic trip up this road and you will end up on top of the world. Breathtaking 360 degree views that gaze down over old growth forests, the Redwood Creek watershed, and beyond. Make the trip in spring to catch the purple lip in fields blooming along the hillsides. Stop to lay in the intoxicating Lupine field and you won’t be able to stop taking pictures. A favorite place for family portraits! Continue on past the lupine for some fun hikes either to the fire tower or explore the preserved historic ranch buildings.
