Bodega Harbor, Natural harbor in Bodega Bay, United States.
Bodega Harbor spans two square miles of protected waters along the Pacific coast, featuring shallow depths ranging from zero to six feet with tidal changes.
Russian fur traders established operations at Bodega Harbor between 1811 and 1840 as part of their Ross Colony activities along the California coast.
The harbor gained media attention when Alfred Hitchcock selected its waters and surrounding areas for filming scenes of his 1962 movie The Birds.
Two marinas, boat launches, and fishing ports provide marine services while several waterfront restaurants offer fresh seafood from local fishing vessels.
The harbor formed naturally within a depression of the San Andreas Fault, creating protected waters that support marine biology research stations.
