I spent some very nice days (weeks?) in Mendocino last year. Even though it’s a bit too quaint and romantic destination-ish for my tastes, it’s still a fine place for a van dweller to hang out. There are numerous trails and ocean overlooks, a river, forests, and state parks in the area. And despite the options for supplies and services being limited, much larger Fort Bragg is just a few miles up the highway.
I had been slow traveling my way north since the end of March, often staying a little inland from the ocean and waiting for the weather to warm up a bit more. Highs in the low 50s? Eh, tolerable for me but not enjoyable. Now the forecast for Mendocino is showing highs in the mid-60s. That’s not T-shirt and shorts weather, but it’s enough to make me happy. Besides, no one wants to see my pale hairy legs.
