I think if I were a food snob and knew to ask where oyster came from before I ate them I’d definitely go with Drakes Bay for purity. Ain’t nothing around there that pollutes the waters unlike Humboldt and other areas on the Coast.
I gotta get up there again, STAT. This time of year everything smells wonderful as the blooms for the flowers and grasses continue into July.
With the micro climates every few hundred yards it can all change and feel like you are somewhere else.
The meadows, rolling hills, deer, mountain lions and supposedly bear, though I have never seen one on the coastal ranges, all make for an awesome trip, if only for a day.
Love to hike and My arm is just about ready to take a backpack.
You are seriously putting me at risk of playing hookie from work.
