Big Sur - Top 16 Things To Do 4K

Big Sur, the name itself rings in the imagination of a rugged coastline, marine sanctuaries, waterfalls, hikes, endless empty beaches, and peaceful rivers. Join me on a 90-mile road trip up the coast where we’ll explore this timeless land on a stretch of the road certainly befitting the name Highway 1

    We were at Ragged Point a few years ago. Video's and narratives fail to capture the wonderful aroma of the place. The scent of the humid salt air and especially the aroma of pine needles and pine trees is equal to the visual beauty of Ragged Point as well as many other places.
