Summary: Sea Ranch Abalone Bay is a the place to go if you need to unwind. It is a great place to commune with nature. Had great weather for our stay at Abalone Bay allowing for whale spotting while walking Bear, our dog, along the seaside bluff. Took advantage of Donna's (owner) suggestion and attended the Gualala Art Festival. It presented arts and crafts from local artists including some talented individuals. Saw several pods of spouting whales while sitting outside on the new Adirondack chairs. They were harder to spot this time because they were mostly out on the horizon. We also saw a deceased large female humpback on the rocks near walk on beach. That was sad. As of our leaving the cause of death had not yet been determined. Sea Ranch is not known for it's fine dining so we ate in several nights bringing some prepared meals with us. Abalone Bay has everything needed to prepare and serve meals just like home. Had dinner at Pier Place in Point Arena. Tried the Rockfish tacos this time which were great. Just another great time for us and our dog, Bear at Sea Ranch.
