The 17-Mile Drive

 


It one of most famous scenic drives in the world- The 17-mile drive that goes through Pebble Beach and Pacific Grove on the Monterey Peninsula that takes you through mansions, famous golf courses and the California Shoreline:












Bird Rock 






The Lone Cypress. It is believed to have been seeded in 1750 and the earliest known paintings and photographs date back to the 1880's. It is between the Cypress Point Club and the Pebble Beach Golf Links which are two of the world's best known golf courses. A drawing of the tree was registered as the trademark of the Pebble Beach Company in 1919.


The 17-Mile Drive is one of the most amazing places I have ever been to. The beauty is so breathtaking and amazing.

  6. Your pictures are fabulous as always, Patrick! I adore the 17 Mile Drive! It's one of my favourite drives anywhere. I even wrote a blog post on it years ago. I still remember having a Mint Julep at Pebble Beach overlooking the 18th hole on our first visit.
