Big Sur Coastal

Carlsbad to Monterey along California's most spectacular coast

Carlsbad out to Santa Barbara along the channel, then up past Hearst Castle and the Big Sur cliff coast to Monterey. The marine layer often sits below 2,000 feet on summer mornings — pop above it for a smooth ride with Catalina, the Channel Islands, and the Santa Lucia Range visible the whole way.
