There are only a few parking lots in town. So, you will have to park on the street. The curbs that are painted green are limited up to 30 minutes or less. The unpainted curbs have signs posted for a maximum amount of time of 2 hours. Be careful to pay attention to your time because you will get a ticket. Parking patrol is everywhere and put a yellow mark on your tire and the street to see if the car has moved.

Tucked away amongst the tall trees along the enchanting Central Coast, Carmel Village is packed with many lovely galleries, shops, pubs and wonderful places to eat! So I guess, having a car will make your life that much more convenient huh? :-) O.K., I hope I've at least convinced you to BEG, BORROW or STEAL a car. Oops! I didn't mean it that way.... but I'm sure you know where I'm coming from!

We travelled down by car on Highway 1 from San Francisco on our wau south to Los Angeles.
Parking can sometimes be difficult in Carmel, parking is allowed on the streets but time limits are enforced. I also think visitors should be considerate towards the people who live whereever you are visiting. Yes, they do well economically from tourists, but at the same time you have to be mindful of where you park, especially in a small place like Carmel.
Parking lots can be found at Sunset Centre and Carmel Plaza.
Public restrooms can be found in the small park in the middle of Carmel and in the shopping centre.
There is only one taxi company in Carmel - The Yellow Cab - Telephone No. 624-3885
Bicycles can be rented from Bay Bike Rentals - Telephone No. 625-2453, which is situated on Lincoln Street between 5th and 6th. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

 Map of my roundtrip by sim1
Carmel is along the coast on highway 1. It is about 200 km (124 miles) south from San Francisco. My trip went further along the coast to San Simeon. From Carmel to San Simeon is another 160 km (100 miles).

On weekends and holidays Ocean Ave backs up coming into carmel...take Rio Road or Carpenter..if you do take Ocean..get off take a side street and zig-zag your way through...it all goes down-hill to the sea anyway. Don't be a sheep. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor HomeWebsite: montereyinfo.org

San Carlos Borromeo de Carmelo Mission, 1771, is the site of The Carmel Mission Basilica and National Shrine of Blessed Junipero Serra, who founded the California Missions and is buried in the Church. Peaceful is the word of the entire grounds that overlook the sea with the hill top view of mountains to the inland side, making a visit to these grounds a must when in the Carmel area.
Tours are given as well as self-guided tours of the entire grounds. I found the museum and buildings to be well worth a stop alone, but combined with the historic background and the burial site of the founder, I believe it to be very educational and emotional as well, no matter what faith or belief you may have. Check out their website for all the facts and figures regarding this Mission.
