Andrew Molera State Park

On our last day in Big Sur and in Cali, we wanted to *hit the beach*. This was one of the closer ones to our campsite and was well worth the little hike! It was covered in cool driftwood sculptures and this amazing view. #LifeAtExpedia

This is a fantastic hike! We took the Bluffs Trail and came back along the beach (keep an eye on the tides; you can only make it at low tide and will still get a little wet). Add the Ridge Trail for panoramic views. That is Cooper Point off in the distance. 🌞🌊⛰
My favorite part of the hike as dusk approaches and the sun shimmers across the sea.🌞🌊⛰
This is the part of the hike that gets a little tricky. There is a tunnel through that rocky outcrop blocking the way, but the tide has to be low! This was the second low tide of the day around 5:00 pm and we got a little wet. Have fun! 🌞🌊⛰
