Walking the grounds at Hearst Castle…

There is so much to see at Hearst Castle that it takes a few trips to take it all in… just walking the grounds presents sculptures and statues from so many eras… some authentic, some reproductions, all fantastic…

Piedras Blancas lighthouse beckons...

Piedras Blancas Light Station has a lot more to offer than its historical tour of this charming lighthouse... it's also a sanctuary for all sorts of wildlife, sea life, natural wonders and spectacular views... and of course the namesake white rocks...

Tours Monday thru Saturday all summer long...
One of only three tall lighthouses built
on the California coast...
Original Fresnel lens on display
in nearby Cambria...
Elephant seals, sea lions, otters, dolphin and whales
are always in abundance...
Walk the expansive grounds to discover
native plants and wildlife...
