About Big Sur

Big Sur is a rugged stretch of California’s Central Coast where the Santa Lucia Mountains meet the Pacific Ocean. It is known for dramatic coastal scenery, redwood groves, Bixby Creek Bridge and the winding route of Highway 1. Spring brings opportunities to see seasonal wildflowers, while coastal temperatures and conditions can vary throughout the day. Late spring and fall are often appealing for outdoor exploration; summer can bring coastal fog. Road access can change following storms or landslides, so travelers should check current conditions before setting out. For culinary itineraries, Big Sur lends itself to combining scenic drives, local dining stops and time outdoors.
