Beach provides, perhaps, the
most scenic setting for golf
and recreation in the world.
With its famous championship
golf courses, it is hailed
as a mecca for golfers.

of world class golf
tournaments, including the
U.S.

annual

It is also home to the
annual
Concours d’Elegance,
considered to be one
of the most prestigious
showcases of the world’s
finest classic automobiles.
Its stunning coastline
includes Cypress Rock, Bird
Rock and the Lone Cypress,
one of the most photographed
landmarks on the California
coast.
Pebble Beach is located on
the tip of the peninsula
between Pacific Grove and
Carmel-by- the-Sea. Some of
the most spectacular scener
y on the Monterey Peninsula
is found along Pebble
Beach’s 17-Mile Drive, a
route that meanders through
tall pine forests and along
the rocky coast. Pebble
Beach is indeed a tourist
mecca, and is probably best
known for its world-class
resort hotels and
championship golf courses.
