[2024 Big Sur Attraction] Travel Guide for Big Sur (Updated Oct)

Big Sur→A wonder on the California Highway coastline

Big Sur, the first place in the 'Rural Landscape' section of the 50 classics recommended by National Geographic. Big Sur is not a fixed attraction, but a road about 90 miles long on Highway 1 in the United States, from Carmel to Hearst Castle, every place is worth stopping, and any casual shot is a blockbuster. Big Sur (Big Sur) is located in the middle of the California coastline, connecting Carmel Fish Saint Simon. The origin of the name Big Sur is Spanish, meaning 'Big South', but the south here refers to the southern part of the Monterey Peninsula. Half cliff, half ocean, this road that combines oddity, danger, and handsomeness, in addition to beauty, is also a test of the driver's skills. This winding road can definitely be called a charming, romantic, thrilling and exciting section in the American coastline, the magnificent Pacific Ocean, the beautiful sunset, the deep canyon, the deep forest, the rugged mountains Various natural landscapes are integrated into this section of the journey, just like a natural art gallery, and you will not feel tired of visiting 100 times. Big Sur✅Must experience ➡️Driving on the coastal highway Driving on California Highway 1 along the cliff, passing through the towering red shirt forest, stopping at the viewing platform, enjoying the beautiful scenery ➡️Feel the beautiful atmosphere of Nepenthe If you come to Big Sur and don't go to Nepenthe, the whole journey is incomplete. ➡️Hike to the secluded bay Go to the small road of Partington Cove, 3 kilometers back and forth, but 90 meters high, the vegetation on the road is rich, you can choose to go left or right halfway (the end point on the left is a small bay with few people), go to the right and pass the small bridge , There will be a tunnel (Paddington made, once walked S wine), pass through it, you can see the slag of Pa Gong Yang. 🧳Preparation before departure: Check the weather: Be sure to choose a sunny day, everything has two sides, how charming the sunny Big Sur is, how terrifying the rainy Big Sur is. Map: Download the offline map in advance, it is common to have no signal on the way. Refuel: Fill up the car before entering Big Sur, there are few gas stations in this area and the price is expensive. Driving time: It gets dark early in winter, it is recommended to play for 1 whole day, 7-8 hours in summer. Check-in point The two big bridges Rocky Creek Bridge and Bixby Creek Bridge have been built for more than 90 years. The two bridges are close in distance, similar in construction style, but the latter has a more magnificent view and is easy to produce big shots. Beach purple beach This beach is not a romantic and leisurely style, it is more like a desert in the forest, an oasis in the desert, to get here you have to cross a forest, drive a very narrow road, we come for the purple, but the naked eye But I can't see the obvious purple. After peeling off the surface yellow sand, the shallow purple will be revealed underneath, so many bloggers take pictures of the purple so obvious, it is really confusing, although I didn’t see the purple beach, but the wild and unruly temperament here also attracts me very much. Smugglers Cave A charming treasure cave, quiet with few people, very filmable.

Pine Ridge Trail Big Sur

Unreal experience seeing Pine Ridge Trail in Big Sur! This breathtaking view is just simply amazing. We can’t believe that we hiked only a few hours just to get this amazing scenery. Imagine seeing your Apple iMac wallpaper to life, this is it! The sweet summer breeze just added to the overall experience. Overall, an amazing trip that I would truly recommend to friends #beachlife

On the No. 1 road, there are many places marked by points. Every place will have two or three cars, and we will stop and walk around to see the scenery. There is a place where we saw dolphins. Big Sur is the most beautiful coastline in the legend. Big Sur will stop every time you open it. If you happen to be able to separate in big sur at sunset, then you can see the sunset in the Pacific Ocean, it must be the ultimate beauty. I can only make up here. So it's hard to say how much time you have to spend on Highway 1. This can be decided by yourself. You can go all the way in a hurry and walk slowly for a week. On the 1st road, you will encounter two very similar bridges. The second one is the most famous Bixby Bridge on Highway 1, which is the longest concrete arch bridge in California. . It is also beautiful to see the magnificent coastline of big sur at the viewpoint here. It is recommended to take Highway No. 1 from north to south, so that the position of the co-pilot is the Pacific Ocean on the right hand side, and the left hand loves the right hand Pacific Ocean. This life has no need to hurry.

Mushroom Jun's American Travel USA, California Continue the journey of California Highway 1, live at the Peak Hotel in Big Sur, this is a must-see for the National Geographic Awards One of the ten attractions. The guests are doing nothing here, just sitting on a double bench and wearing a blanket to watch the sea and see the trees. You don't have to look for it, you can greet the beautiful sunset above the mountains and the middle of the woods in the cold air.

Life advice: Always take a drive on Highway 1!

💜 Road trips can be said to be full of surprises, I really like this unexpected feeling. 🤍 The trip to the United States harvested a lot of beautiful scenery on Highway 1, among which the most unforgettable for me is Big Sur. 💜 We arrived at Big Sur at more than 8 o'clock in the morning, a layer of fog shrouded the sea, waited for more than an hour, slowly unveiled its veil, as if in a painting.

Highway 1 'Love of Mountains and Seas' - One of the must-visit spots in life

🇺🇸United States🇺🇸 Highway 1 A trip on Highway 1 in California, USA, is the most popular self-driving route in North America, without a doubt! Almost everyone who comes to the United States has to take a trip. Some people say: Driving on California Highway 1 is a kind of enjoyment, a kind of life attitude, a kind of baptism, a kind of fusion of people, sea, and sunshine. 🛣️Highway 1 starts from the north of San Francisco, winding southward until the south of Los Angeles, crossing the entire western coastline of California. Unlike the desolate and vast 'American Highway' in the impression, Highway 1 is sunny and sea all the way, with distinctive towns and national parks along the way, making it more than just a monotonous sea view. Californians are the most life-loving group of people in the United States. They have their own philosophy of pleasure. For them, Highway 1 is not just a highway, but their life. 🌊On one side is the vast Pacific Ocean, on the other side is the steep and towering cliff mountains, the rocks stir up pieces of white waves, which is the most classic view of Highway 1. In the early morning, the mist is lingering, as if walking in the clouds. In the evening, watching the sunset glow on the sea sprinkling on the Pacific Ocean is the most comfortable! 🚗Friends who go to California Highway 1 can drive to Big Sur and then go back, walk more than 100 kilometers, Monterey to Big Sur round trip takes more than 2 hours, but the scenery along the way to Big Sur is very beautiful, worth a detour. 🌸Wish everyone out there, pay attention to safety, have a pleasant journey

Luxury and Relaxation at Ventana Big Sur 🌲🥂

Thank you for the great trip @dudareva_mv and for the thousands of pictures you took 😅🥂 📍Ventana Big Sur is the most expensive hotel I stayed at so far but it is so beautiful and relaxing and staff takes such good care of you 🌲

From Carmel Town to Big Sur, you can only use the words to describe it. Most of the way is Panshan Road, and you have to be very careful. On this section of the road, most of the iconic landscapes of the entire No. 1 highway are concentrated, and the coastline is also twisted and twisted. The air is filled with the taste of the sea at any time. When there is occasional fog, the distant mountains become looming, and a strange light appears in the sky, turning into a long-distance ink painting.
