Bodega Dunes Campground, Bodega Bay
It’s no secret that sleeping in the sand dunes at Bodega Dunes Campground is an experience second to none. But it’s the long strip of beach just over the dunes where the real night magic lies. On a mile of starlit sand, why, anything can happen. And I do mean anything.
Now maybe that’s a secret.
Driftwood that accumulates on that stretch has a habit of magically turning into huts and stick houses. Just imagine what racy North Coasters could and would get up to in those shelters out there after midnight if it were possibly possible and conditions were ripe … and they are, six months out of the year. I’m talking scantily clad artistic nomads dancing and writhing and sweating on colorful carpets to the soft light of candles and the background drone of drum beats and ocean surf.
Now, I’m not saying anything improper does happen out there in the unmonitored freedom zone after lights out, but I’m not saying it doesn’t, either. Because if it did, only those in the know would know, you know? Let’s just say that the next time I book a campsite at Bodega Dunes, I’ll be headed out to the beach around the time everyone around me turns in for the evening. <wink> <wink>
