Carmel Beach
Access: Multiple entries from the foot
of Ocean Avenue, south to Santa Lucia Avenue
along Scenic Road
Generations of Carmelites and visitors alike
have treasured the dog-friendly, sugar-white
sands at the foot of Ocean Avenue. It's a place
to see and be seen: a length of coastline that
features a breathtaking panorama that encom-
passes the wildness of Point Lobos to the south
and the manicured fairways of Pebble Beach to
the north, with white water in between.
This beach was made for walkin', and that's
just what people and their four-legged friends
do here, whatever the weather. An afternoon
spent here will most likely be rewarded with a
glimpse of an example of just about every exist-
ing domestic canine breed. After dark, this spot
is the site of joyous gatherings around bonfires
celebrating life's milestones…or just celebrating
being on this spectacular beach.
