Point Sur State Historic Park

We didn’t know what to expect, but we’re thrilled by this experience. Unique, interesting, and gorgeous. Our volunteer docent Tyren was exceptional. This could easily be the highlight of our trip to Big Sur. Highly recommend. We arrived at 9:15 and were third in line.

Beautiful walking trails and no difficulties for people with medium mobility issues (use of a cane for example).

It was cold and rainy the day that I went, so I didn't get to fully enjoy it like I wanted to. But it was so beautiful and scenic that I had a blast overall I'll definitely go back when I'm up in NorCal and when the weather permits!

A hidden gem along the California coast, offering a deep sense of peace. Perched on a rugged cliff, the views are breathtaking, with the Pacific stretching out endlessly. The quiet, untouched beauty of the area makes it the perfect place to step away from the world and immerse yourself. There’s something calming about just being there, surrounded by the raw coastal landscape.

Atleast once in your lifetime. It's worth it. There's a fee but it's a necessity to keep the park running and buildings well preserved. The tour guides are very knowledgeable too and nice!

It's a unique experience along the coast highway. We were there on Wednesday morning, queued on 9:45, the park ranger closed the gate as soon as no more car waiting , so you don't wanna have the traffic jam. It's the guided tour by two volunteers. They divided us into two groups of around 13 of each. Slowly walking towards the top with experienced stories shared with us. They will charge $12 per person after the tour, which I think it's lowest price for a nice guided tour. You also have the chance to buy some souvenir on the top. They will escort everyone out together after 2 and half hour tour.

Actually I only passed by on my way to and back from the Big Sur, and didn't have a chance to go in. On my way back, I happened to see the fog covering the Big Sur coastline, so I stopped and took a picture from the other side of the road.

Stopped alongside the road to take in the magnificent state park and naval station/lighthouse with a beautiful sunset acting as the backdrop. Large shoulder making it easy to park and take pictures.
