Point Lobos became one of our favorite places in all of Monterey and Carmel this weekend. We hiked there twice and would be there again today if we didn’t have class! What an amazing spot on the California Coast. We took the North Point Trail up to the Cypress Grove and Sea Lion Point. You can hear those guys barking from a mile away! This was the beautiful music we heard: sea lions barking, waves crashing and a running conversation of sweet non-sensical jibberjab from John Shea.
The trail is absolutely breathtaking and takes you through all kinds of coves and outlooks, winding in and out of the ancient cypress trees. The coves with turquoise water reminded us so much of Oki.
It’s an amazing spot not to be missed! And to everyone who has already visited us… next time you come, we’ll take you here 🙂
