    Trinidad Memorial - 05.25.25 in January 20, 2018, the lighthouse and fog bell were relocated to the harbor area

    Monument for those buried at sea [Trinidad CA]…read more I wasn't sure if this Yelp page was for the concrete memorial lighthouse (or is it a replica) or of the one off of Edwards Street. Either way both are remembering those who perished at sea. The memorial on Edward's Street is a pyramid shaped marble slab engraved with sea gulls and the words "Lost At Sea," with names listed on the plaques. As more names were added through the years additional plaques were placed along the adjacent cement retaining wall. There were so many names it was sad to see and reminded me of the movie "the Perfect Storm" [2000] with George Clooney and Mark Wahlberg. The movie was based on a true story where the boat of the crew of six was caught in a storm and disappeared with no survivors. In 2012, we saw the memorial in Gloucester, Massachusetts inscribed with the names of those men. So sad. The memorials in Trinidad are free to visit. It looks like the lighthouse has moved a couple of times but it was at the harbor area where we saw the lighthouse and fog bell which served as a permanent location for the monument. Both memorial locations were adorned with wreaths during the Memorial Day weekend. The Axel Lindgren Memorial Trail on Edwards Street was currently not available due to erosion. Review #3777

    This memorial that overlooks Trinidad Bay is a few steps down some stairs near the parking lot. It…read moreis a four-sided monument that has plaques with inscribed names of those that were lost or buried at sea. Additional plaques were placed along the adjacent wall as names soon outgrew the smaller monument. There used to be a replica of the 1871 Trinidad Head Lighthouse here. It housed the original Fresnel lens and the bronze fog bell from 1898. But it was moved to Trinidad Rancheria Harbor a few years ago due to erosion. I was moved by the memorial when I passed it on a walk one early morning. Each year on the last Sunday in May, this community gathers to remember the names of the people recorded on the plaques.

    It would be nice if the county come up state, or whoever would tell you that the lighthouse isn't…read moreopen every day. The signs don't really tell you where to go, and the whole thing is a very confusing affair. We walked all the way to the top, went around a few times, and we never got to see the lighthouse until we were able to see that it's only open once a month. We feel let down if you want to get some exercise, go ahead, but don't expect to see the lighthouse.

    Even though I didn't see the actual lighthouse (it only opens the first Saturday of every month),…read morethe loop trail around Trinidad Head is amazing and still worth doing. It is just under 2 miles to hike the entire loop and is a pretty easy trail to walk on. This hike provides some of the best viewpoints of the Pacific Coast. The trailhead starts off in the parking lot. The Trinidad Head Memorial Lighthouse (replica of the original) was recently moved near the parking lot and you are able to walk up and see it. It was a beautiful morning when I hiked this trail. I loved the picturesque view of the harbor with all of its sea stacks. During certain seasons, you can spot migrating grey whales. Trinidad Head Trail Loop has a few benches along the way if you want to sit and relax and enjoy the view. There is also a stone cross on the trail that commemorates the Spanish explorers that landed here in 1775. In addition to the views, I enjoyed going through the little greenery tunnels and seeing all the pretty flowers on this hike. The lighthouse was commissioned in 1871 and is still currently active.

    This is a beautiful modern pier nestled in the relatively calm waters of Trinidad. The "new pier"…read morereplaced the "old pier" several years ago, but the primary purpose remains the same: supporting commercial fishing and crabbing operations seasonally. The last hundred feet or so of the pier is designated only for commercial fishing operators, but the rest of this private pier is open to the public. The environment surrounding this pier is breathtaking, with huge headlands towering above either side of the pier, and a gorgeous view of the rocky coastline down towards Humboldt Bay. I visited this pier twice during Thanksgiving week, fishing and crabbing in the evening with my boys. We caught a few small rockfish and white croaker, and several small crabs that were well below the size limit. Can't wait to come back here.

    Taking a short walk on a long pier is better than the other way around - believe you me, especially…read moreif you do it early in the morning after the fishing boats have left. It's California's northernmost oceanfront pier (if that kind of trivia excites you) - and indeed it's eighty miles south of the Oregon border. Just for your reference, the crabbing baskets were decoratively stacked at the end of the pier (photo: http://bit.ly/355OWY8), and the surrounding scenery was near-storybook. I didn't try the Seascape Restaurant at the front of the pier, but the next time I need chowder, I'll be so there. Pretty spot it is indeed. RELATED - Lost on the Lost Coast?

I had plans to spend the holidays with the family in the Bay Area so I had to "stock up" with Humboldt products, particularly Dick Taylor chocolates and Moonstone Crossing wine. I was blessed to have Hayley on duty when I visited. As usual, she listened to what my planned event was and suggested some excellent choices. I was surprised to see that she had her "own" blend...HAYLEY'S COMET. I cracked up when I saw that she had modified the logo to feature her dog! I wound up purchasing several of her own blend as well as an assortment of other reds. As usual, the family loved the wine, especially Hayley's product. Thanks again for making me so happy to "rep" Humboldt when I travel!

    Hailey (spelling?) was wonderful, just as other reviews mention. I am not a wine connoisseur and…read moreshe helped me throughout my tasting, which I chose to do 4, only 10$ which is totally fair. The only kinda weird thing is it's not a flight so you have to actually come back to the counter and get more which interrupted my girl conversation outside! No biggie but would be nice to have all 4 at once as I like to kinda taste between them. Either way, I liked 3/4 of the wines and I went home with a bottle of the red rose whatever that was haha. The inside of the shop itself is absolutely adorable, cozy, and welcoming. Super close to Trinidad head where you can see gorgeous views. Great place and I recommend!
