Drive along Big Sur's Highway 1, a 130‑mile stretch of California coastline known for its dramatic views and changing seascapes.

Big Sur is widely recognised for its rugged coastal scenery and has long attracted artists and creative communities, as well as visitors drawn by the area's sense of space and nature. This tour gives you opportunities to spend time outdoors and, with some luck, spot marine animals along the coast.

The audio commentary highlights seven key places not to miss, along with additional suggested stops, places to eat and drink, and stories linked to the route. You can choose how to structure your journey, setting your own pace and deciding where you'd like to stop and spend more time.
