My husband, Jorge and I have always had a love affair with the Sonoma Coast, and most especially with The Sea Ranch. Just before we made up our mind to purchase our home Jorge went diving in the waters below. There he harvested his first 10" abalone! That cinched the deal and gave rise to our naming our new home "SeaRanchAbaloneBay.... " for the cove that graciously gave up the yummy mollusk. Unfortunately, harvesting abalone is no longer possible, but spearfishing and fishing off the bluff remain a favorite activity for Jorge and me, and our many guests. We'll be happy to share some of our insider tips with you too!

We give back to our community globally and locally.
We have always believed in the importance of family, friends, and giving back to our community. No matter where we have lived over the years we have always been active in the community we call home. That connection shows that we are all linked no matter where on the globe we or our guests may be at any moment.

In these times of climate change with its global warming, it becomes even more important that Abalone Bay recommits itself to the original covenant of The Sea Ranch. Further, we also declare a climate emergency. Based on the science before us, we promise actionable steps to stop the climate emergency we now face. For that reason, we have joined Tourism Declares. This initiative supports tourism businesses, organizations, and individuals that declare a climate emergency and take purposeful action to reduce their carbon emissions.

We also act locally as a member of the Sea Ranch/Mendonoma Community. A portion of our proceeds of your guest rental is given directly back to the people of "Mendonoma." We also invite our guests to join us in this endeavor. Local non-profits we support include: Coastal Seniors, Action Network, Redwood Coast Humane Society, Redwood Empire Food Bank.
Why they chose this property
Of all the places in the world we thought we'd settle in of course it had to be an oceanfront property in The Sea Ranch! We love fishing and abalone diving (which is currently closed).
