Fanshell Beach by Ewingjr98
Fanshell Beach is another of the most popular stops in Pebble Beach with its own unique charms. This beach has a view of Bird Rock, and it offers several picnic tables on the sand for a nice lunch. Fanshell Beach is known for its annual migration of seals which haul up on the beach during pupping season. This often busy stop on 17 Mile Drive is between the much busier Bird Rock and the tip of Cypress Point. Fanshell Beach is almost completely surrounded by Cypress Point Golf Course and its beautiful ocean-front houses.The beach is closed each year in April and May to protect the sensitive seal habitat.
