This has been one of the coolest views to see of a beach, and the cliffs were gorgeous!! Don’t expect to swim at this specific location, but it is part of the 17 mile drive that will make an amazing adventure!
One of the most photographed places in the world. I went on a weekend. Difficult to find parking on weekends/long weekends. Restrooms not available.
Views along the famous 17 mile drive. Yes you must pay a fee to enter this private drive and yes, it is worth it. Slow life down, take the drive, stop often and enjoy this special region. The famous lone cyprus tree on the point is an excellent ( and over photographed) location for a stop. There is a reason this spot is famous.
Breathtaking. Magical. Totally surreal!
Awesome Drive on the 17-Mile Drive tour and you get to see this iconic spot that is just so beautiful it'll take your breath away!
Good place to stop along the 17 mile drive road. More than this actual spot, the route which leads to this parking area is more attractive. Covered with spooky cypress trees ! From this point you can see a beach on your left with beautiful …
Stunning. Could spend all day here. Just sublime.
Extremely lucky that we found many harbor seals sleeping on the sand. We thought they were the rocks ! ! !
A little challenge to take a good picture with the fence in front. But understand why it is done. Beautiful
In olden days( 15th century) it used to snow ❄️ here. But now its a beautiful spot to see cypress trees.
