Upon arriving in Eureka, a sense of gratitude can be felt, as travel to this sea-side city isn't a simple trek. Either way one might enter, the city offers many dining options as well as plentiful booking opportunities if one plans on staying for more than a day. Traveling Dashers and gig workers be warned, there is VERY limited work opportunity here including the sister city of Fortuna. Scheduling in advance may be helpful, however if one relies on their delivery work as a means of paying for fuel and room, things can become grim fairly quickly if not prepared. For those not concerned by societal pre-requisits, the city is host to many fun experiences for outdoors enthusiasts / those seeking oceanside treks. Coastal exploration is seemingly integrated into the cities overal design and makes for much of the history which it has been built upon. There are some big name shopping outlets to be explored, like Walmart and The Home Depot to name a couple. And with that said, one can also expect to encounter the more poverty ridden social classes in abundance (I say this with respect to the lesser fortunate, as I myself am without a home nor a place to wash clothes or shower even). I will not sugar coat the reality of what one may find in their travels to Eureka, as I believe that genuine reviews with honesty and realism bring about positive change (or we can only hope so). All in all, if you're just traveling the coastal highways and learning to find yourself once again, Eureka is a much needed stop along your route. Whether to fuel up and move out onward wherever, or stay a night or more, here one can always find what they're looking for.

So I went down to vollunteer/work at the Redwood Coast Music Festival and get a mini vacay and do some travelling. The music is fabulous at this venue. The people are friendly, and nice. I love the old architecture buildings and homes and I wish I would of had more time to explore this trip before heading back up. Next time I will have a more thought out itinerary. The Veterans Memorial Building is beautiful. So is the Eureka Theatre. I pretty much brought my own food and a hot plate because I was on a budget. Other than a cheeseburger I got to share with my dog...and she loved that. The motel is dog friendly...I like that alot. I take my dog everywhere when I travel. Gas is a little spendy right now. I am amazed that gas is cheaper in Idaho 4.11 Oregon 5.60. yet over 7.00 on the coast for regular when California is on the ocean and quicker to shipping.

Sequoia Park and Arcata Community Reserve were amazing and free of charge. Fort Humboldt was a let down as all but 1 building was closed. Samoa cookhouse was a let down as the staff seemed confused as to where to seat us and the food was not that good. The fried chicken was very good but the rest of the meal was just ok.

Eureka is a charming little town on Humbolt Bay. We went to get out of the valley heat and enjoyed every moment of the cooler weather. We traveled up to Arcata for a day and enjoyed both hiking in the Redwood’s and the Farmers Market in Arcata Plaza. Trinidad was foggy but the hike up to the lighthouse was well worth it. We took a tour of the Bay on the Madaket, the oldest continuously running boat in the US. So many things to do. We would have loved to stay longer.

Eureka is an old Native American haven, lumbering, and gold rush town with lots of history, near the ocean and evergreen woods. It offers a wide choice of things to do and see. The weather varies from foggy and damp to bright and sunny. Old Town Eureka is fun with Victorian themed buildings.

Eureka is a great spot for your Redwoods vacation. Right in the middle of all the action. It is a small size town but still has all the places to get your supplies. The zoo in town is nice, not outstanding on animals but the forest walk where you are 50 to 100 feet above the forest was very spectacular for pictures. The whole area is great. Ave of the giants is a must see. Check out the Victorian houses in the town of Eureka and Fernwood. Take the Trinidad Scenic road for great photos or hikes. Go north to the National Park. So many things to do with Eureka right in the middle
