Nature is on full display in the pristine natural state enjoyed by visitors for over 125 years. Hundreds of bird species, harbor seals, river otters, bobcats, deer, eagles, osprey and hawks are every day visitors. Kayak, dine, hike, walk on the beach or just watch the waves.

Experiences at the Jenner Inn

Jenner Inn Café

 The perfect place for a hearty breakfast or enjoy a relaxed midday meal. Our naturally lit, wood-beamed dining room offers a warm, welcoming setting, and our menu features coastal comfort dishes made with

fresh ingredients.

Jenner Kayaks

Glide into the calm waters of the Russian River estuary and explore Jenner’s natural beauty from the water. Paddle past Penny Island, float alongside harbor seals, and enjoy the quiet charm of this protected habitat.

Bird Watching & Nature

With over 200 bird species migrating through the area, Jenner is a favorite destination for nature lovers. Pelicans, Osprey, Hawks, and even a Bald Eagle can be spotted throughout the year. Take a walk or a long hike. Bring your binoculars.

Harbor Seals

Where the Russian River meets the Pacific, Pacific harbor seals are a familiar part of life in Jenner. Each spring, a sand spit forms at the mouth of the river, creating a resting place where they can often be seen

along the estuary.
