The park address is 201 Doran Beach Road, Bodega Bay, CA.

[5] Doran Regional Park has 120 pet friendly campsites for tents, trailers and RVs that feature potable water, fire rings, picnic tables, and full-service restrooms with showers nearby.

During World War II, the government took control of the bay portion of Doran Ranch through eminent domain to create a safe harbor for rescue operations and constructed the jetties at the mouth of the harbor with locally quarried rock.

After the war, the land eventually passed to the County and the beach was established as a formal park in the late 1960s.

[7] The Coast Guard Station Bodega Bay is located within the boundaries of the park.
