Incredible scenery . I'm coming to the states from England in 2018 to specifically drive highway 1 from SF to LA. Will defo visit the nepenthe restaurant. Iv been up to Malibu from LA and was so mesmerised by the coastline it got me salivating for a longer drive. Great vid X

Nice video. Cool close encounter with a rare condor!
Thank you! Yes! The condor was spectacular!
Such beautiful scenery! The rabbit guy was kind of an awesomely odd find.
:) Thank you!!! Yes, he is awesome! I'm guessing he is there during the busy summer months, but not sure.
I'll have to look for him next time I drive the west coast.
Everything looks so beautiful! You absolutely have us lusting over this trip, it's been on our list for years. Great video! 😂 Ohhh rabbit guy.

We have been aching to see Big Sur! Such a gorgeous place!
Come for a visit! Big Sur is like no other place in the world! :) Thanks for watching!
You blew it! You left out Deetjens which is synonymous with Big Sur! You missed the best place to stay ever!
I will have to check that out next time.
this place is really beautiful! it must be breathtaking to see it live, omg. Thanks for sharing Jess!
Come for a visit! :D
Someday I will!!
Hey thanks for the tips! I will be making the trip soon and it has helped me a lot!
Awesome! If you have any other questions please let me know! Happy to help! Have so much fun! Will this be your first time to CA/Big Sur? I was just in Big Sur area today on a mini road trip! :)
Yes, is going to be my first time! We just bought the tickets a couple of days ago and wer'e planning the whole roadtrip. Do you have an email I can write to?
How exciting! You will have so much fun! Yes, email me at curiouscalifornians@gmail.com and ask us anything! Happy to help!
Hey Renato! Hope your CA trip planning is going well! Just wanted to make sure you got my e-mail! :)
going to be traveling there next week!!!! ^-^
ohhh that was pretty cool... ive never been to those spots... I usually avoid highway 1 when I drive back up there... but only because it takes forever to get up from LA... One day ill have to purposefully plan stops along the way and make it a highway 1 kinda trip. Thanks for the suggestions... they all look great and worth taking the time to stop.
Thank you! Yeah, I've driven it a lot to get to San Luis Obispo, but it does take a lot longer! So many stop and gos
Very cool video!!!
Thank you so much!!!!!! :D Your comment makes us smile!!
very cool Jess thanks for the share
Thanks Jeff! :D
Well done! Stay curious!
Thank you so much Chris! ;)
Love your smile
the Waterfall is so nice
my girlfriend and I are going up north on a roadtrip from socal in 3 weeks and I'm so excited right now...
I'd add also a stop at hurricane point, one mile south of Bixby Bridge. From there you look north back at the bridge and the coast and also from there you can see the Pt. Sur Lighthouse.
Woooow, these views are breathtaking! Can't wait to visit the US someday :D
Thanks Eva! We are waiting for you!!
I love Lonnie! Hoping to see him and his rabbits on my way up the PCH next summer!
He was so friendly and kind!
So cool.
Thank you! Hope you can come for a visit!
Definitely a California condor at the 2:24 mark. You can see a brief flash of the tag on the upper part of the right wing. an amazing capture. You can believe this or not but he was checking you out. They are more social than people realize.
The bridge , restaurant , trails look phenomenal . Incredible! Was that an eagle ? The nature looks fascinating too . 😊
Thanks so much Lauren! :) Your comments are always so nice! I think it was a California condor. :)
Nice vid - I just visited this part of the world too! Beautiful :)
Thank you!!! Yay! Was it your first time? What part did you like best?
Nagyon jó videó Gratulálok! Magyarországról. 👍
Great!!!
Big sur im 3 weeks cant wait
Hope you enjoyed every second!!
A group of us are doing this trip in early June on motorcycles, anymore great places to stop would be greatly appreciated... 😎
Hahha this guy looks like from The Hobbit movie :) I looooooove this road! Been here but didn't have enough time to stop at all places! Did though in Big Sur ;) Great video!
Thanks so much for the amazing comment! :) You rock! Come back again!
That nepethe restaurant seems dope
Haha tis rabbit guy is awesome!!!!
Lol!! He was such a great surprise!!! Nice guy too!
The Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu is also beautiful.
Oh yes!!! I LOVE that area!!!
I wish I can travel like you..
:) We live very close to Big Sur. Come for a visit!
Good video too legit
Thumbs up.
Great video! My wife and I are from Canada. we were looking forward to big sur on our US roadtrip but looks like the landslide on hwy 1 is changing our plans for the coast drive :(
Thank you! Yes, Big Sur has had a rough year with erosion and landslides and falling bridges. Sorry that it has changed your travel plans. Parts of Big Sur are still open. Just make sure to check Cal Trans. Where else are you headed on your roadtrip? Any more spots in CA?
mickcracker You can try going on hwy 101 the stuff on that hwy isn't as beutiful
So, are those spots that you showed out of limits since they had the landslide and the bridge problems? or is it still possible to travel part of the scenic road and turn back to Monterey if coming from the north or if coming from the south is it possible to take in part of the hwy 1 and go as far as possible and then take a road to the freeway 5?I am planning to go to San Francisco and wanted to take hwy1 all the way up there.. Great video! and that condor? was awesome!Cheers
Dont miss Pfeifer Beach. its a stunning place
Good tip!
Bitag
Omg, the guy with the bunny!!!
He was so nice! :) He let people hold his rabbits lol
verry nice video!:) i been there in 2012 , i really mis it:(( its breath taking. i take the highway 1 from san fran to la, bhut way i didnt see that beautifull restaurant:( next year i wil be back, cane you tell me is that restaurant if you go on the highway 1 from San Fransisco to L.A do you drive by that restaurant? because i didnt see it in 2012! cheers
Thank you very much! Yes, if you drive HWY 1 from SF through Big Sur on the way to LA you will pass by the restaurant. There's a big yellow sign that says Nepenthe, but I can see how people miss it. It's a bit pricey, but the views are gorgeous and the food is fresh. If you need help planning your next trip or have questions, let us know! Happy to help! Cheers and hope you make it back to California soon!
I'm making this trip with the family in June 2017 in your video min 0:14 where is that on the map of the big sur ??? Looks really cool . Thanks love your video !
Hi! How exciting! Make sure you check the road conditions because there is a big bridge that they just recently demolished from so much rain damage. People were stuck in Big Sur and people couldn't go in. Not sure when they are opening it back up, but wanted to give you a heads up! The video at 0:14 I believe was right after Bixby Bridge also on Hwy 1 in Big Sur. It is a beautiful little underpass. :) Where are you from? Will this be your first CA trip?
yes ive been to the LA are couple years ago but was for couple days and i was stationed in 29palms ca back in 1998 but a lot of things have changed since then and now that i have my family the short visit couple years ago left us wanting ore of California. yes ive been keeping up with the road conditions looks like after San Fran we will drive down to Monterrey then hit the 101 then 46 then stay at morro bay and then check Hearst castle before driving back to LA .
Perfect! Enjoy your upcoming trip!
Condors are the coolest part at the falls. Must have seen over three hundred of them buzzards.
Great video! I'm planning a trip for my husband and I out west...... we will be flying in from New Orleans, LA. which airport should we fly into? I want to make it a road trip but throw in a few spa days at the Post Ranch Inn.... any suggestions? Thank you in advance!
Hi Cheryl! Thank you and great question! It depends on how long you have for your road trip! You could fly into SFO and make your way down Hwy 1 for 1-2 days or fly into LAX and head North. Those will most likely be the cheapest options for flights. The two closest airport to Big Sur are the Monterey Regional Airport (30 miles), or San Jose (100 miles). Hope that helps! I'm super jealous! The Post Ranch Inn is LOVELY!
CuriousCalifornians thank you!
some good fishing too if you can somehow get out.
Oh! Didn't know that! Great tip !
Hi. Is it easy to park for free at these spots?
Nice video..which music is added in the background?
Hi! Thank you so much! To be honest, I can't remember what the song was called but I do know it was one of the ones from the RUclips creator music.
toll ein Musiker mit einem Kaninchen süss, an der Bixby Brigde super
ich würde sehr gerne diese Strasse Highway nr one mal rauf und runterfahren, das wär das Grösste
What time of year is this? I'm trying to figure out the best month to go!
Hi! I think this was in August. Personally, I think the best time to visit is during the shoulder seasons right after Summer (Sept-ish) and Spring time. Spring time is gorgeous because of all the green and wildflowers too, sometimes there are rain showers, but mostly it is nice weather. As of right now, there are some road closures in the Big Sur area, but they should be done fixing the roads in a few months. Summer of course is a great time to visit if you don't mind crowds. Hope that helps! Let me know if you have any other questions! Happy to help~
They never tell you Nepente's is as expensive as hell.
Yes, true it is pricey, but if you've never been I think it's worth the splurge? However, there's plenty of more affordable and great places to eat on a budget!
To do this trip how much money do I have to have?
If I am not mistaken, I think you recorded on film a California condor. Envy.
I just had to look again and I think you are right!! Whoa! It did look like there was white underneath the wings. Thanks for the comment and letting me know! Fantastic!! :)
the rabbit man yes
He's incredible
Gorda and Jade cove!
i have already been through every state in the us....
giggles rabbits ❤
that was a giant condor Don't go now The mountains are slipping into the sea
Did you get to go down to Mcway waterfall ?
No, unfortunately, you aren't allowed to go down there. :(
Aww , it's so beautiful :(
Have you been on the Pacific Coast Highway?
what motivates you to travel?
Great question! For Ben it's seeing places firsthand and for me it's about the people I meet. What about you?
CuriousCalifornians haha a mix of the two of you. both amazing reasons. have you made life-long friends during your travels?
Yes! We've made quite a few lifelong friends on our travels. Many while living in N.Zealand and it's always great to see them! U?
i hope the eagle doesn't find the bunnies!
Hahaha!!! :D
lol
