Healdsburg Veterans Memorial Beach provides public access to the Russian River with a seasonal swimming beach (July-Labor Day), picnic areas, and restrooms.

The site offers paddling and wading opportunities year-round, with a temporary dam creating a calm swimming area during summer months and lifeguard coverage from Memorial Day through Labor Day.

Parking fills quickly on summer weekends ($12 summer/$8 off-season), and all-terrain wheelchairs are available free on a first-come, first-served basis for beach access.
