Point Sur State Historic Park is a California State Park on the Big Sur coastline of Monterey County, California, United States, 19 miles (31 km) south of Rio Road in Carmel. The 1889 Point Sur Lighthouse is on the National Register of Historic Places.
For $8, the three hour tour provides you more information about the history of Big Sur, Light Stations, and the old days than you might get at a typical museum. Plus getting to see a Frenell Lens up close is pretty awesome. The views are among the best in Big Sur, hands down!
