Miller Boat Launch

Miller Boat Launch is a very popular four acre site on the east side of Tomales Bay, a few miles north of Marshall. The launch was renovated in 2007 and provides a two-lane ramp and docks for motorized and non-motorized boat launching. Overnight parking is allowed for boaters, which makes Miller an excellent access point for visitors seeking overnight camping or boating adventures in Tomales Bay and surrounding Point Reyes seashore.

Anglers have a choice of fish at Miller including striped bass, perch, rock fish, halibut, salmon, and crab. The dock and parking are accessible. Personal watercraft are prohibited for reasons of habitat protection and noise.

Dogs are allowed on leash and must not enter wetland areas because of sensitive wildlife species.

To get there from Point Reyes Station, take Hwy 1 north approximately 13 miles. the boat launch is on the left, adjacent to Nick’s Cove.
