We hit up all the popular landmarks, but my favorite thing about this area is that you can pull off anywhere along the coast and the scenery is amazing! How crazy is that? We got to catch up while soaking in all the views. We’ve been so spoiled by having our Airstream on our #EndlessCaravan, and it was so nice not only being able to do the scenic drive but also getting to glamp along Highway 1.Ĭoincidentally, we found out that one of our friends from Atlanta who we’ve known since high school happened to be driving through Big Sur on the same days. But it’s been a dream of mine to come back and stay in Big Sur.
For the past few years, we’ve mainly done day trips, driving down the Monterey Peninsula from the Bay Area. The Highway 1 road trip is one of the most iconic and scenic drives in the world.
