Breeze Flights From Burbank, CA to Arcata, CA From $59*

Northern California doesn’t get more scenic than Eureka and Arcata. Nestled between towering redwoods and the rugged Pacific coast, these twin towns are a dream for nature lovers, artists, and anyone looking to slow down and breathe in the fresh forest air.  

Start your day in Old Town Eureka, a historic district filled with colorful Victorian buildings, local shops, and waterfront spaces. Grab a coffee and pastry, then jaunt along the boardwalk overlooking Humboldt Bay. 

From there, head north to Arcata and explore the marsh and wildlife sanctuary there. This peaceful spot is perfect for a relaxing stroll with trails winding through wetlands, meadows, and birdwatching lookouts. It’s a great way to stretch your legs and spot herons, egrets, and maybe even a river otter. 

No trip to this region is complete without a walk among the giants. Drive north to Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park, home to some of the tallest trees on Earth. The short and stunning Fern Canyon Trail is a must-see (and a filming location for Jurassic Park fans). If you’re staying closer to town, Sequoia Park in Eureka offers a more accessible redwood experience, complete with a canopy walk that lets you stroll through the treetops. 

Wrap up your day in Arcata Plaza, the heart of town. Enjoy dinner at a local bistro and sample regional wines while soaking in the lively, college-town vibe. Live music and street performers often add to the atmosphere, thanks to nearby Cal Poly Humboldt. For a perfect sunset, take a scenic drive to Samoa Dunes Recreation Area. The wide-open beach and crashing waves provide a peaceful, picture-perfect end to your day.
