    Highway one between carmel and San Simeon is an absolute adventure...the Big Sur Coast is one of the most memorable drives you will ever have the privledge of doing. It hugs the coastal mtns. and offers breathtaking vistas around every turn. The sparkling Pacific Ocean crashes below as you make your way down the left coast. It is still unspoiled and under developed...and for California ...that says something!! Great dining and lodging along the way as well...Its crowded in Summer(esp August) and on Holidays ....so go at other times...and take a drive at night...you have the road to yourself.
    Enjoy!! but be safe....it is a dangerous route

    Even though Highway 101 may be fogged in at times on your scenic drive, you can still get some pretty good, gothic looking pics. It almost seems like one has discovered a highway above the clouds and towards the heavens.

    Ok, THE THING to do at Big Sur is drive the coastal highway 101. This is a great stretch of road which is incredibly scenic. You will problay stop your car around 30 times to take great pics. Like I said in the intro, drive slo and safe and be awed. Here are some pics.
