Point Joe

Highlight • Viewpoint

Coastal trail is a flat and easy run with nice views and a sound and smell of the ocean. The waves are smashing against the rocks here.

Tip by

11.0 km

At the end of the 19th century there were wooden huts. Chinese immigrants had built them. They made their living by fishing, selling shells and pebbles polished to a high gloss for tourists. The namesake of the hotspot is Joe, a hermit who lived here with his goats.

China Rock

Highlight • Viewpoint

China Rock, located on 17-Mile Drive, offers bikers a scenic view of the Pacific Ocean. Once home to a small Chinese fishing village in the late 1800s, it is now a peaceful spot to enjoy the rocky coastline. Situated near Point Joe and Bird Rock, China Rock is a great place to stretch your legs, breathe in the ocean air, and appreciate the area's historical significance as well as the natural beauty.

Fan Shell Beach

Highlight • Beach

The beaches along the Monterey peninsula have a very white sand due to the white rocks and sea shells it's made of.

Lone Cypress Tree

Highlight • Natural Monument

Pebble Beach on 17-Mile Drive in Monterey is not only known for the most beautiful/expensive golf courses (de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pebble_Beach_Golf_Links 🏌🏻‍♀️) but it also hosts the most exclusive car auction every year by classic cars (see also autobild.de/klassik/artikel/pebble-beach-2017-monterey-car-week-10676163.html 🚗)
However, we "only" enjoyed the surf with the rugged rocks, the Pacific and the nature along 17-Mile Beach ☺️
The Lone Cypress is an absolute tourist attraction there and we couldn't escape a certain fascination either 😊 More information at de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/17-Mile_Drive

Carmel-by-the-Sea

Highlight • Settlement

This picturesque little town south of 17 Mile Dr is a sight in itself. Beautiful wooden houses, numerous art galleries, and the hometown of several Hollywood stars. Clint Eastwood even served as mayor of this small town of approximately 4,000 residents.
