Bring your own foodNo reservationNo alcoholDogs OK

Sonoma County's lifeguarded Russian River beach at the south edge of downtown Healdsburg, with shaded tables and lawn above the sand. It is the easiest family swim-and-picnic stop in the Healdsburg area, but it is one of the few County parks where alcohol is banned year-round, so leave the winery bottle in the car.
