Point Arena-Stornetta Public LandsHead north to discover the untouched beauty of Point Arena-Stornetta Public Lands, containing 1,700 acres filled with dramatic seascapes.

Depending on the time of year, you'll catch glimpses of humpback, blue or gray whales as they migrate between Alaska and Mexico.3. MurphysCalifornia has no shortage of amazing wine country destinations. But if you're looking for a lesser-known locale for sipping, head to the quaint town of Murphys where more than two dozen boutique wineries are open year-round for wine-tasting.

You'll immediately get a feel for what California looked like a century ago.5. Big Bear LakeYou may have heard that in California, it's feasible to surf and ski in one day. Big Bear Lake is a place that makes it possible. It sits at 6,700 feet in the San Bernardino Mountains. In the winter, one can go for snowboarding and skiing abound at Big Bear Mountain and Snow Summit. In the summer, it's all about hiking, cycling and off-road jeep adventures on the 60-plus miles of cross-country trails. Paddleboarding, kayaking, boating or fishing on the shimmering lake are the other great options.6. Anza-Borrego Desert State ParkYou haven't seen a night sky until you've seen it in the remote Anza-Borrego Desert State Park.
