About This Drive
The Monterey Peninsula is one of the great driving destinations in California — a compact stretch of coastline that packs in world-class golf, Steinbeck history, extraordinary marine life, and the iconic 17-Mile Drive through Pebble Beach. This route begins in Carmel-by-the-Sea, the storybook village of galleries and wine bars, then winds through the private Pebble Beach estate past the Lone Cypress — the most photographed tree in North America — before descending into Monterey for Cannery Row and the Bay Aquarium. For the driving enthusiast, WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca sits just 15 minutes inland, home to the legendary Corkscrew corner that has defined motorsport photography for decades.
