Pfeiffer beach, California

Just stunning. Take the unmarked hairpin right turn a couple of miles south of Big Sur Lodge and follow the narrow road to coastal gold. The coastline is very Goonies-esque. The spray, mist, noise and power of the Pacific are sensational. The rock formations moulded by years of wind and water are a sight to behold too. The wide expanse of infinitely walkable beach means that there is always a quiet spot – or as quiet as the wind and waves will allow. About two hours south of San Francisco or 30 minutes south of Monterey, right off the amazing Pacific Coast Highway. Bring a picnic as there are no services.
