Our action-packed itinerary kicks off at sunset at Hurricane Point, a prime vista locale along Big Sur. We’ll continue following the light the next morning as we travel to Point Lobos State Natural Reserve for a session at sunrise. It won’t take long for you to see why this spot is hailed “the greatest meeting of land and water in the world.” Venturing slightly inland, we’ll stop by the historic Carmel Mission, one of California’s most beautiful in a long chain of missions along the central coast. Get a lensful of this centuries-old architectural treasure, and then step down to the coastal town of Carmel-by-the-Sea for an opportunity to blend both city and ocean in your shots. At Soberanes Point in Garrapata State Park, an excellent vantage position along Big Sur, use the evening light to your advantage as you fill your frame with the surrounding jagged coastline, sandy shores and grassy hillsides. Patience and luck may even result in a chance photo of the harbor seals and otter that dot the nearby waters. The following morning, the quaint fishing town of Moss Landing will bring more wildlife into view, from playful sea lions to roosting pelicans. For a dramatic medley of man-made architecture and natural beauty, turn your lens no further than Bixby Bridge, one of the world’s ten highest single-span bridges. Traveling on to Julia Pfeiffer State Park, you’ll want to tilt your lens skyward toward the towering redwood, tan oaks, madrone, and chaparral trees, as well as the nearby 80-foot waterfall. Our cameras will greet the sun at Pebble Beach, where we’ll begin the legendary 17-Mile Drive tour of such famous landmarks as the Lone Cypress, Seal and Bird Rocks, Fanshell Beach, Point Joe and the Restless Sea. Wrap up this whirlwind string of sights by photographing the Point Pinos Lighthouse, the oldest continuously operating lighthouse on the West Coast. There is no question of the sheer breathtaking beauty of the sights you’ll capture on this trek to Coastal California. Sign up today!
