    Hiking

    As part of Point Lobos, the Sea Lion Point & Cove offers an incredible experience. Among the diverse plant life and botanics, you'll likely be able to witness many sea lions and seals going about their day.

    Hiking

    A beautiful small state reserve just off Highway 1 is Point Lobos, just a few miles south of Monterey and Carmel in the north of the Big Sur area. Particularly impressive is Point Lobos due to its enormous variety: here the steep coastline with its rugged cliffs, there the dense forests with numerous rare plant species and the strangest rock structures on the water. And animal lovers will also get their money's worth thanks to the abundance of sea lions and rodents.
