Elephant Seals

Point Piedras Blancas, Hwy 1 a few miles N. of Hearst Castle
San Simeon, CA
website

There are a few vista turn-outs on HWY 1 north of Hearst Castle, but you will know that you have come to the best place to view the Elephant Seals when you see a large gravel parking lot filled with cars just a few miles north of the castle. These seals are amazing and it is definitely a special stop. However, the wind is quite cold off the ocean here - even with hoods the cold can bother little ears - bring the knit caps.
