Trinidad Head
Trinidad, Humboldt County, California


Bold Trinidad Head provides a landmark for mariners along the north coast, as well as sheltering a tiny harbor. It was first named by Spanish explorer Bodega Y Quadra in 1775.

A trail encircles the promontory, affording views of the coast as well as the historic original lighthouse, a replica of which has been built in the town of Trinidad.
