Tomales Volunteer Fire Company

Established in 1976, the Tomales Volunteer Fire Company at the time was one of the few Marin County Stations to utilize volunteers to supplement permanent staff. Our volunteers, provide basic life support paramedic services, wildland and structural firefighting, response to traffic accidents, falls, hazardous materials response, search & rescue, water rescue and disaster response.

The Tomales Station covers the largest service area of any Marin County Fire Department. The Tomales fire station serves Tomales, Dillon Beach, Marshal and Chileno Valley in addition to providing mutual aide to the communities of Bodega Bay, Two Rock, Valley Ford and the US Coast Guard Base in Two Rock. Most importantly, the Tomales Volunteer Fire Company’s water tender 1590 serves as a crucial water source for fire suppression in remote areas such as the Point Reyes Peninsula and other rural areas.

We need volunteers to provide critical support to our community! Join our team and learn new skills including basic medical, wildland fighting, engine driver training, among other crucial skills to respond to an emergency.
