San Francisco to Los Angeles via the Coast
Road; Highway 1
One of the best
road trips in the US, the coast route from San Francisco to Los
Angeles
includes great sights like surfers near the Ventura County Line,
rocky shorelines home to Leopard Seals, Elephant Seals and
California Sea Otters This road can often be fogged in
for most of the day, giving rise to beautiful photo opportunities of
the desert cliffs running down to the ocean.
Do not expect to cover the 450 miles quickly as travelling along
Highway 1 can be slow, due to the many tourists using the road who
are unfamiliar with the area.
If you think you are going to be
cool and stand out by renting a Mustang or Harley Davidson motorcycle
to do the trip, think again. You will be one of hundreds who
choose to do this every week.
This journey is best enjoyed in a
comfortable vehicle; as the highway was in poor condition in some places.
