I live up here and shelter cove is beautiful. So glad I get live in a beautiful area

[@shadowbannedagain6753]

My mother took me to shelter cove often to visit her friends. I remember the beach vividly. I want to go back now that my mom is gone maybe she will meet me there from heaven.

What a beautiful place Shelter Cove really is! I am lucky to call it home! So cool you were able to get to the tide pools during that low tide!

[@globalgeezers7785]

Yes, it is. So awesome! :)

[@clarkewi]

I used to go surfing there with my buddy in the 1970's. No other surfers there but us.

[@globalgeezers7785]

I used to see a few surfers at the far end of the cove on some days, but there were never very many. Maybe you were one of them. :)

[@dimartin01]

Hi…such a beautiful place. Is the community diverse?

[@globalgeezers7785]

It's a pretty small community, so while there are a few things to do, I wouldn't call it diverse.

[@dimartin01]

@@globalgeezers7785 Hi and thank you so much for the response. I was thinking more about the makeup of the community.😊

[@globalgeezers7785]

You're welcome. What do you mean, specifically, by 'diverse community?' Race, religion, age, or something else? 😊

[@dimartin01]

@@globalgeezers7785 Hi, and thanks again for responding. Yes, age, race, religion, political views, etc…thank you.😊

[@globalgeezers7785]

It's more diverse now than when Sarah was a kid, but that's still not a lot. 🤷‍♀️ If you're considering going there, we would encourage you to be your own judge, since we all have different perspectives. There are some amazing and kind folks out there!😌

[@gabrielneedham7848]

Love the Cove! Just don’t like the road 2 get there!

[@tommyvercettygt]

It's cool that they even have their own airport, i wonder if someone lands there

[@globalgeezers7785]

Yes, it is. And yes, it's used quite often.

[@aria1885]

people land here a lot! its a very popular place for tourist to land

[@geoffreywiedenmayer4409]

Going to this area this weekend from Reno. Staying in Miranda to see the Redwoods. Great video and looking forward to checking out Shelter Cove and have a beer at Gyppo! Cheers!

[@globalgeezers7785]

Awesome! Enjoy!

[@SorgiStories]

We know now. And it's awesome. Glad to sub & support fellow family travelers! That place is insane...and I know means a lot to you, Sarah!

[@globalgeezers7785]

I knew your Grandma Ruth. 😊

[@globalgeezers7785]

She was amazing!

[@CVenza]

Thank you for this memory lane tour, lovely story. May I ask why the sand is black here? It is so beautiful and glistens against the blue waters amazing sight.

[@globalgeezers7785]

You're welcome. We've never learned why it's black. Yes, it's beautiful!

[@WallStreetIceCream]

wow beautiful area

[@globalgeezers7785]

It really is!

[@westonbaccus231]

Hopefully I can get some time off work within the next few months so I can head up there and see where my family came from

[@vajleexi]

Is it true that the roads to get to shelter cove can get dangerous because they are very steep?

[@globalgeezers7785]

You must drive over the mountain range to get there, so there are steep and narrow areas. I wouldn't call it dangerous unless you're going over the mountains when it's iced over, or if you don't give the winding road the respect it deserves. :)

[@vajleexi]

@@globalgeezers7785 ok thanks for letting me know.

[@1MoreTurn]

Would like to check it out one day.

[@dipthongthathongthongthong9691]

Nice video. Thank you. What was the bug situation like when you were there... in terms of hiking along the beach or interior areas? Any idea what it would be like this month (August) if traveling there? Thanks for your feedback.

[@globalgeezers7785]

Thanks. There were no bugs when we were there in March. In August, there are more bugs in forest or plant-rich areas, but Sarah never experienced a bad bug issue during her summers there. If we were going to hike in that area, Sarah would definitely use repellent, because she is a mosquito delicacy. Lol!

[@indianinusa3226]

Have u travelled on thanksgiving day weekend ?

[@ToddLedbetterIRL]

I've always known that you are not the blowhole. Great video, safe travels.

[@globalgeezers7785]

ThanksI Keep safe yourselves as well.

[@JaydenGutierrezzz]

I'm going there😂😂

[@notumbusbumbus3871]

Um, no. MANY people know about Shelter Cove - like all the people who live within 100 miles of the place. Sheesh - now we're all nobodies?

[@globalgeezers7785]

Yes, many people do, but many more don’t, and rightfully so. This is what makes it special, as the video describes. 😉

[@adriennefloreen]

Be careful driving there in an older car or RV, the road is extremely steep and cars and RVs frequently burn out their breaks, but I'm sure you know that if you grew up there.
