We are so excited for you to experience the magic of Carmel and Pebble Beach. Whether you're looking to maximize your sightseeing, shoot a hole in one, or see some wildlife, there's no place like the California Coast. Below, please find a guide to some of our favorite spots and activities.

Restaurants

Mulligan's (Carmel-by-the-Sea): Grab a spot on the back patio and enjoy some of the best (and strongest) Tito's Frose while soaking in the top-notch soundtrack.

Tap Room (Pebble Beach): Iconic for a reason -- located at The Lodge, immerse yourself in golf history... and great burgers.

Roy's (Pebble Beach): Get the martini and catch the Bagpiper at sunset.

Toro (Carmel-by-the-Sea): Our favorite sushi spot.

Earthbound Farms (Carmel): Smoothies, soft serve, and flowers abound. A must stop if you're looking for a little bit of extra sunshine.

Lucy's on Lighthouse (Pacific Grove): Venture into the fog for the best punk rock surf shack hot dog experience on the West Coast.

Activities

Kayaking: Explore Stillwater Cove by making a reservation with Adventures by the Sea.

The Hay: For those of you interested in playing The Hay, we have a limited number of tee times reserved for Pebble Beach's 9-hole Par-3 course on Saturday morning starting at 9:00 am. Please contact us via the button below to reserve your spot prior to October 1st.

Golf: Pebble Beach and the greater Carmel area is home to some of the best golf courses in the world. If you are interested in golfing, we recommend booking ASAP as tee times book quickly.

Point Lobos State Natural Reserve: Take in the drama of the California Coast while exploring one of the richest marine habitats in California. The trails are well marked and suggested for beginner to intermediate explorers. Please note that parking fills up fast, so we suggest getting there early.

Bird Rock Vista Point & Beaches: Everyone at the wedding will be cleared through the 17 Mile Drive gates throughout the weekend. You could spend your whole weekend hopping from vista point to vista point, but this is one of our favorites (and one that you won't see during the wedding!). We love parking at Bird Rock and walking the trail along the coast past Point Joe and beyond. Keep your eyes peeled for otters and seals!
