Point Arena’s 330-feet long public fishing pier is the hub for fishing activities but is also popular for abalone diving, kayaking, surfing and the launch of pleasure craft. Sea Urchin, Crab and Salmon are popular yields of the commercial fishing vessels that are launched by hoist off the Point Arena Pier which was reconstructed in 1983 when a storm destroyed its predecessor.
