Drakes Bay an der kalifornischen Pazifikküste

Die Drakes Bay ist eine kleine Pazifikbucht und liegt nordwestlich von San Francisco, Kalifornien. An der Nordküste der Bucht gibt es den Drake's Estero und den Point Reyes National Seashore. Die Bucht wurde nach Francis Drake benannt, der hier während seiner Weltumrundung landete.

Eine weitere Bucht mit dem Namen Drake's Bay gibt es auch auf der Osa Peninsula an der Pazifikküste im südlichen Costa Rica.
