Point Reyes Field Station

This site is located within the boundaries of Point Reyes National Seashore about six miles south of Olema, California. Cooperatively managed with the National Park Service (NPS), the station serves as a hub for field-based research and teaching in Marin county, providing access to the expansive coastal habitats of the Point Reyes peninsula.

It is uniquely situated for research on well over 100,000 acres of remarkably diverse biological, cultural, and historic resources within Point Reyes National Seashore as well as the large number of open space lands in the surrounding area, such as Golden Gate National Recreation Area, Mt. Tamalpais and Samuel P. Taylor State Parks, Marin Municipal Water District, Audubon Canyon Ranch properties, several Marin County Parks and Open Space areas, and Muir Woods National Monument.
