MacKerricher State Park, Coastal state park in Mendocino County, United States.
MacKerricher State Park extends along the Northern California coastline with beaches, dunes, tide pools, wetlands, and forested areas covering its territory.
The land transitioned from indigenous Pomo territory to industrial usage with a glass factory before becoming a protected state park in 1952.
The park maintains educational programs about marine biology and coastal ecosystems through ranger-led walks and interpretive exhibits throughout the year.
The park features two group campsites, Cleone East and West, accommodating between 9 to 60 people with specific vehicle limits for each location.
Visitors can observe seals on coastal rocks and migrating whales from headland vantage points during winter and spring seasons.
