The tiny village of Bodega has big-screen cred: It, along with neighboring Bodega Bay, provided Sonoma County locations for director Alfred Hitchcock’s classic thriller “The Birds.”
Movie enthusiasts can drive by such landmarks as St. Teresa’s Church and the Potter Schoolhouse (now a private residence). Then, grab a snack at one of the markets and visit the eclectic mix of shops.
