Albion is located at the mouth of
the Albion River just south of the Mendocino Village. The small
hamlet of Albion is believed by some to have been the landing
place of Sir Francis Drake. Its dramatic Albion River Bridge was
built in 1944. Due to the wartime effort, steel and concrete were
unavailable, so the bridge was constructed with salvaged wood. It
remains in service as the last wooden bridge along the Coast
Highway. |
Albion quaint picturesque harbor set
deep into the river gorge with dramatic inlet views of the ocean
and surrounding coastal hills. The river is still pristine and the
setting just right for some vacation photos or movie locations. |
