As for Monterey Bay, there are several spots that lovebirds have flocked to for a memorable proposal throughout the years, including Big Sur.
The one-mile trail on Asilomar State Beach features coastal views of Pacific Grove, perfect for a romantic stroll, but if a drive is more up your alley, you can do so just south of there at Pebble Beach.
The 17-mile drive is best known for its “17 Points of Interest” – including The Lone Cypress, a 250-year-old tree perched on a cliff, along with Bird Rock and Stillwater Cove.
The 17 Points of Interest also includes Point Joe, Ghost Tree, Del Monte Forrest and the iconic Pebble Beach golf course, one of the most iconic courses in the world.
