A Brief History of The Sea Ranch

The Sea Ranch is a second-home community on the North Coast. Historically, it was the last frontier for Spain and Mexico. The Pomo Indians were the first settlers before the Spanish, Mexicans, Russians and Americans arrived in the 1800's. The Sea Ranch was part of the El Rancho German land grant given to Ernest Rufus, a German native while California was still under Mexican jurisdiction.

The lumber mills that dotted the countryside and shipping along the coast played an important part in the development of The Sea Ranch. During the Prohibition era, The Sea Ranch became a place to hold wild parties with little risk of being caught. The calm pace of coastal life returned when Prohibition was repealed.

In 1964 Hawaii-based Castle and Cooke purchased the 5,000-acre ranch that was to become The Sea Ranch. In 1968, the Board of Supervisors approved the Sea Ranch for development. Today, The Sea Ranch consists of 11 miles of coastline north of Fort Ross and has maintained its natural beauty. The Sea Ranch is bounded on the north and east by the North Fork of the Gualala River and to the west by the rugged coastline of the Pacific Ocean. The Sea Ranch features a private airstrip and a championship-length 18-hole golf course.

The Sea Ranch is located on the Sonoma County Coast approximately 90 miles north of San Francisco on Highway 1. It is primarily accessible by road but there is a private airstrip located on The Sea Ranch. Location of other cities and communities can be found on the Map of Sonoma County.
