There are so many breathtakingly beautiful coastlines to visit all over the world — the French Riviera, Ha Long Bay in Vietnam, the Amalfi Coast in Italy, Great Ocean Road in Australia–but Big Sur in California can take your breath away. Its rugged, wild, rocky, 90-mile coastline stretches 71 miles between the Carmel Highlands and San Simeon, with redwood forests, forest-covered canyons, secluded coves and inlets, and the big, blue Pacific Ocean. It will definitely put you in touch with nature and nature’s bounty. It is truly one of the most beautiful coastlines in the world.
“It was here in Big Sur that I first learned to say ‘amen.’”
– Henry Miller
“This is the way life goes in Big Sur. Waiting for the mail, watching the sea-lions in the surf or the freighters on the horizon, sitting in the tubs at Hot Springs, once in a while a bit of drink – and, most of the time, working at what ever it is that you came here to work on, whether it be painting, writing, gardening or the simple art of living your own life.”
~ Hunter S. Thompson
