The Michelin Guide's review
This gorgeous private scenic road crosses one of the wealthiest and most famous residential districts of the West Coast of the United States. 17-Mile Drive connects Pacific Grove to Carmel, winding through the heart of a cypress forest. Here and there, the vista opens up to take in the Pacific and its golden rocks. Recommended stops include: Seal Rock, with a picnic area and eared seal observation point; Cypress Point and Lone Cypress, for the viewpoints over the coast of Monterey.
