Located along the coastline of Tomales Bay, Duck Cove Beach is a beach with light brown sand and sparse vegetation. The beach is a part of a national park known as Point Reyes National Seashore. There are a few residential homes behind this beach, which were built by a developer and are currently a property of the national park. Duck Cove Beach does not have lifeguards or any other amenities, so plan your trip accordingly. There are many nearby boat and kayak launches that you can use to travel to Duck Cove Beach including Lawson’s Landing which is in the nearby community of Dillon Beach that also offers boats on rent. Another great kayak and boat launching spot are Miller Boat Launch which is managed by Marin County and has a paid parking facility. In addition, you can also find boat launching facilities in the nearby town of Inverness. It is important to note that unlike some other beaches along the Tomales Bay shoreline, Duck Cove Beach is only open for day-use visits and overnight camping is prohibited here.
