“…the greatest meeting of land and water in the world.”
That’s what landscape artist Francis McComas said about this spot along the Pacific Ocean Coastline at Carmel, California. Point Lobos State Natural Reserve became part of California’s State Park system in 1933. They only allow 150 vehicles in the park at any given time in order to preserve its tranquility.
Lookout People!
The swells a few weeks ago were crashing pretty high along California’s Pacific Ocean Coastline. Fortunately these two people were not hit by these massive waves and swept to sea.

Black and White Pacific
Some B & W’s from California’s magnificent Pacific Ocean. I may just move there. Cambria is a nice town with great coffee and not far from Paso Robles’ wine country. Click on image to start slideshow.

Rainbow Ice Plant Along California’s Coast
On my trip last week along California’s spectacular coastline, I noticed that the Ice Plant growing along the sand dunes and beaches was a very vibrant color. Fall weather had made its mark on the Ice Plant. In the second photo below, you’ll see the color of Ice Plant in other seasons. With an approaching Pacific Ocean storm, the contrast of the autumn colors to the dark blue skies was a refreshing look. Now, if we could only get an ocean in Southern Utah where I live.
This is the beach at Garrapata State Park just south of Carmel. The beach disappeared the next day under the high surf produced from a strong Pacific Ocean Storm. Those photos to follow soon.
Time Lapse Video of Stormy California Coast
I was just south of Carmel, California on Friday when a winter storm passed through producing some awesome surf. I had never seen waves as tall as these 20 to 25 footers. Still photos to follow although here is one below. The photos or video don’t quite capture the immensity of the swells.
