Visit the California Redwoods, the Battery Point Lighthouse and don't miss the view of the harbor and the Pacific Ocean.

The Redwoods are the world's tallest living trees. These mammoth trees grow to weigh over 500 tons and are taller than the Statue of Liberty and the Giant Sequoia trees.

Crescent City was the site of two tsunamis, one in 1964 and the other in 2006. The 1964 tsunami was a major one: 11 people died and the damage was $7.4 million in 1964 dollars. This 21-foot tsunami was the result of the great earthquake in Alaska. Although the tsunami was felt along the California coast, the damage was greatest in Crescent City.
The 2006 tsunami was the result of an earthquake in Japan. It was 5 to 6 feet high. No lives were lost and damage was estimated to be $700,000.
