2 Best Sights in Redwood National Park, California

Klamath River Overlook

Fodor's choice

This grassy, windswept bluff rises 650 feet above the confluence of the Klamath River and the Pacific. Among RNSP's best spots for spying migratory whales in early winter and late spring (other wildlife year-round), it accesses a section of the Coastal Trail. Warm days are ideal for picnicking at one of the tables.

Crescent Beach Overlook

The scenery here includes views of the ocean and, in the distance, Crescent City and its working harbor. In balmy weather this is a fine spot for a picnic. You may spot migrating gray whales between November and April.
