The coastline through the Big Sur region is incredibly scenic. Highway 1 climbs onto sea cliffs as high as 800 feet, and down into beautiful coves filled with sand, tidal pools and often seals. Every corner opens a new vista and you will want to stop frequently for the views and photos. We’ll point out many waterfalls that are viewed from the roadside, and some that might require a short hike to reach. There are rocky coves to explore and shorelines that even wash up gemstones for a little beach-combing. Wildlife sightings like sea otters, elephant seals and condors overhead are essentially guaranteed. Even the redwoods are larger than life. Some of the small communities along the route are classic Californian beach towns, unique to the region and Hearst Castle is a cultural icon and a location that holds many surprises. In fact, there are so many stops to make, you could spend a week and not see them all. The tour commentary will make sure you know the top 7 "not to be missed" locations, so you won’t miss any of the best things to see and do. WHAT YOU’LL SEE: Some of the highlights along the route include; • Bixby Bridge • Pfeiffer Beach • Nepenthe • Pfeiffer Big Sur State Park • McWay Falls • Hearst Castle • Moonstone Beach • Elephant Seals Vista • Partington Cove • Point Lobos • Morro Bay • And many more State Parks, scenic lookouts and photo opportunities BATTERY USAGE: ++ Continued use of GPS/Location Services in the background increases battery usage.
