Planning a Trip

Visitor Information -- Contact the Big Sur Chamber of Commerce (tel. 831/667-2100; www.bigsurcalifornia.org) for specialized information on places and events in Big Sur.

Orientation -- Most of this stretch is state park, and Highway 1 runs its entire length, hugging the ocean the whole way. Restaurants, hotels, and sights are easy to spot -- most are situated directly on the highway -- but without major towns as reference points, their addresses can be obscure. For the purposes of orientation, I'll use the River Inn as a mileage guide. Located 29 miles south of Monterey on Highway 1, the inn is generally considered to mark the northern end of Big Sur.

 

Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
