Eureka is the largest city on California’s North Coast and the seat of Humboldt County, set on the shore of Humboldt Bay. Its timber and shipping fortunes built some of the finest Victorian architecture in the state, including the ornate Carson Mansion, and Old Town’s restored buildings now hold galleries, restaurants and shops. Health care, government, fishing and tourism support the local economy, along with Cal Poly Humboldt in nearby Arcata.

The drive from San Francisco on U.S. 101 takes five hours or more, which puts Humboldt County out of reach for many weekend trips. California Redwood Coast–Humboldt County Airport lies north of Arcata in McKinleyville, close to the redwood parks, while Murray Field sits right on Humboldt Bay near downtown Eureka. A private flight lets you arrive in time to walk among the tallest trees on earth, explore Ferndale’s Victorian main street or eat oysters fresh from the bay. Redwood National and State Parks and the Avenue of the Giants are both within easy reach.

Things to do in Eureka

When to go. Eureka’s climate is cool and mild year-round, with summer highs often in the 60s and fog common on the coast. September and October typically bring the clearest, sunniest days. Memorial Day weekend brings the Kinetic Grand Championship, a three-day race of human-powered art sculptures from Arcata to Ferndale. Fall is also a good time to see Roosevelt elk in the redwood parks, while winter brings most of the rain.
