Hi! So glad you're here! Can I tell you a bit about this place? This area of the California coast has some of the most awesome natural outdoor beauty. The urban and the wild mingle here. The tall trees, the delicate rustling of eucalyptus leaves, the pounding of the surf or gurgle of a secluded creek are short drives from anywhere in the county. Get a crick in your neck exploring the ageless Giant Redwood Trees that are older than the Roman Empire, experience sandy beaches, rain forests, the wetlands and windswept ridges. See for yourself, visit the Gallery.
And after you've seen the redwood trees, check out the agricultural, timber, railroad and American Indian heritage resources in Humboldt County. Arts and culture abound!

Lost Coast Headlands view from Shelter CoveThat's the Lost Coast Headlands Live Web Cam on the left, and it is one of four mounted on the balconies at the Inn of the Lost Coast in Shelter Cove. This one updates every minute, and you can use these cams to see if the ocean has laid down enough for fishing without your having to drag the boat all the way out to the end of Briceland Road. Or, watch the whales swim by, they hug the coast here as they pass by twice on their annual migration. You may also see deer nibbling on the grass or even an occasional elk, and the lawnmower man shows up on a regular basis. Also pelicans, usually around late afternoon as they head for home.
This is the view you see from your balcony, and we highly recommend spending a weekend at the Inn of the Lost Coast to decompress.

Fortuna Event Accommodations

One of the main draws of beautiful Sunny Fortuna is its many annual festivals and celebrations. The Redwood AutoXpo draws more than 20,000 visitors each summer – many enthusiastically donning pink poodle skirts and other vintage attire for the occasion. The hotels, timeshares and inns in the area fill up fast, so if you are planning on attending one of Fortuna's many festivals, be sure to Rent a Timeshare early. Also be sure to visit the Fortuna Festivals page on this site for a full schedule of events!

The random images below are available in a larger format in the Picture Gallery and as slideshow 1 or slideshow 2 or slideshow 3. High-resolution pictures of local events are located at fortunaphotos.com.
