Things to See & Do
The best way to see
Carmel-by-the-Sea is on foot. Be
sure to check out the over 60 hidden
courtyards where many treasures are
found. A short walking tour of
Carmel courtyards is available at
the Carmel Chamber of Commerce
Visitor Center on San Carlos between 5th &
6th.
Do not miss the fantastic murals of
Point Lobos and beautiful highlights
of the Carmel area found on the
walls of Bruno's Market on the
corner of Junipero & 6th and Nielson
Bros. Market on San Carlos & 7th.
Get in your car and take the world
famous 17-Mile Drive through Pebble
Beach, stopping at The Lodge and
Spanish Bay for shopping, a cool
drink, and a memorable meal.
And plan to spend a day in the sun.
Carmel Valley typically enjoys
weather several degrees warmer than
the coastal areas. Plan a day to
drive out to Carmel Valley and wine
taste, shop, eat, and enjoy the
beauty.
Miles of incredible coastline:
Big Sur 26 miles
Hearst Castle 90 miles
Big Sur warrants a day by itself.
The scenic winding drive will put
you in the mood for what's to come.
Surround yourself in nature - ocean,
river & redwoods... And to end the
day, stop for refreshments and a
sunset view at one of several
resorts and restaurants in this
small rustic town.
Looking for sea otters? Visit Point
Lobos, 3 miles south of Carmel on
Highway One for sea otters in the
wild. Also see the world-famous
Monterey Bay Aquarium for
a spectacular display of sea otters
and marine life from Monterey Bay.
The Carmel area has something to
please everyone. If you can't find
what you are looking for, just ask!
Carmelites are happy to share their
corner of the world. |
