What People are Saying about my Ultimate Guide to Big Sur
I cannot believe how much time this guide saved us. We were planning our first Big Sur trip with two kids and I was drowning in blog posts and outdated lists, then I bought this and the whole trip just clicked into place. The numbered route meant zero arguing in the car about where to stop next, and the hidden gems Rocio shares are the spots my kids still talk about months later. Worth every penny and then some.

I created this guide to help you experience Big Sur the right way, especially if it’s your first time.
Over the years, I’ve visited Big Sur many times—some trips with my kids, others with friends, sometimes just for the day and other times camping and staying longer. Each time, I discovered something new.
Along the way, I found spots that most people miss… the kind of places you only learn about after going back again and again.
That’s why I decided to put this guide together, so you don’t have to figure it all out on your own.Because yes—you can drive through Big Sur in a few hours.
But to actually experience it—its beauty, its quiet moments, its hidden corners—you need a plan and a little intention.
This guide is here to help you make the most of your time, avoid the common mistakes, and enjoy Big Sur in a way that feels easy, not overwhelming.
