Doran is straddled between the ocean and bodega bay. Shell campground is cloverleaf shaped so sites are close together. Easy walks to beach and ocean. Sites are level. Short drive to bodega bay. This is a favorite camp site. Dump station is very busy on Sundays.

Although the park is full, it’s quiet. Love listening to the waves, birds and foghorn. Short walk to the clean bathrooms. It’s usually overcast in June but the sun broke through while we were here.

This is a nice campground to enjoy as a quiet coastal getaway. We were there in early April and the weather was cool - to cold, and windy, but it was also beautiful. Before arriving I was concerned that our campsite had a big tree at the back of it, but it turned out to be a blessing because it allowed great protection from the wind and were one of the few campsites on the Jetty that could sit outside during the heaviest wind. #91 is also right across from the off-leash doggy beach- so the pup was very happy. Nice camp host, nice campers - great beach walking or trail walking - all dog friendly. We just switched our rig from a 24' Class C - to a 32' Toy hauler - and our site was 44' long -perfect. Highly recommend going - we didn't explore too much on bikes due to the wind - but my Husband went into Marin to Mt. Bike ride. There is a $2.00 a day fee for dogs- no utilities, but a dump.

Beautiful area! The beach was so nice and the sunset was lovely. The campground is set up so that most sites have some privacy between them but....the coastguard is in the back end...engines all night. And there's a horn that beeps about every 30 seconds ... Constantly. Earplugs were no help. Sound machines may be better.

The rangers drive through the the park around 7-7:30 am to see who has arrived and they just ask you to check in at the station after 8:15 am. In addition to the rangers, there’s also a camp host that sells fire wood.
Everyone was super friendly, there wasn’t a lot of trash around, the bathrooms were clean and it wasn’t overly loud, considering how full the place was. You can hear a horn off in the distance, as well as seals, but it wasn’t loud or annoying.
My favorite part was that even though camp sites are close to each other, it didn’t feel crowded. And there are two beach areas where dog are allowed off-leash. My pup wasn’t a fan of the ocean, however.

We camped at site 110 for two days and then site 111 for seven days. Site 110 was perfectly flat and was next to a water station. There are water stations at every couple sites. Site 111 was ocean side and required a little more to get level. It seemed like any site was okay at the end of the beach. We heard that the sites on the channel side could get pretty windy at times.
The hosts were super nice!
There are bathrooms and coin showers in the area as well as recycling containers for boxes, bottles and even propane bottles.
Doran Beach is a two mile stretch and at low tide one can see many star fish and other sea creatures at the East end of the beach on the rocks.
Each site has a table and a fire ring.
There is a dump station and also an additionally one time fee of $7.00 for sewage.
There is a fog horn that goes off every nine seconds, but after a while one doesn’t even notice it.
One can hear an occasional seal barking on the rocks offshore.
There are many that come here and fish for fish or fish for crab. Many kayakers, wind surfers and kite fliers.
There are several places to eat seafood nearby.

One of my favorite destinations. Weather can be unpredictable along the coast, but that is part of the adventure. Great long beach for nice walks. You can also drive across the harbor and hike the bluffs on the west side. While you are over there, make sure to visit Spud Point Crab Company. The county rangers and staff are great. The facilities are always clean. Bring quarters for the showers. ($2.00 for 5 minutes) All the sites are flat, but some of the asphalt pads are a bit short. There are sites that face the bay or the harbor. Nice fire pits for those chilly nights. The hosts have firewood for sale. ($10 per bundle) Dog friendly too.
Yes there is a fog horn to remind you where you are and the Coast Guard tests their engines every day.

Site was paved and pretty level with fire pit and table. Camp host was pleasant. We spend each day walking down along the beach with our dog. On Sat and Sunday it got a little more busy with people crabbing along the levy. We were lucky to spot a bob cat with a baby. We would come back again.
