Can I collect driftwood, shells and pebbles on Redwood Coast beaches?
Wellyou shouldn’t fill up a wheelbarrow, but feel free to keep small pieces of wood and stone that catch your eye. Agate Beach, located between Patricks Point State Park and Big Lagoon County Park and accessible from each, is especially popular with rock hounds, who spend hours searching for semi-precious agates, jade and moonstones. You may also pick berries for your own consumption (salmonberries and thimbleberries in early summer, blackberries in early fall). Otherwise, please don’t pick or harvest any plants in the Redwood Coast parks.
