Quote: Lovers Point park Photo - Lovers Point Park, Pacific Grove, California Lovers Point is located in that fuzzy area where you can't tell whether you are in Monterey or Pacific Grove. That doesn't matter here. Lovers Point is a famous area for lovers to propose and for weddings to be held.

It seems that the heavens, earth, and the sea all decided to blend perfectly here. All is right with the world when you stop off here for a while.

Although it can be crowded during the summer, during late October, it seems deserted at dusk. That is my favorite time to visit. I like having a place of such beauty and tranquility unspoiled by the murmur of the throngs of tourists that are present in the summer.

If there was ever a coast that could inspire a person to believe in a higher power, the Monterey/Big Sur coastal area has to be that place. It feels as if God himself reached down and blessed the land himself. Truly a spectacular sight.

My photography skills leave much to be desired, so please, visit this place yourself.

Quote: This had great views of Monterey and the bay. We had lots of fun climbing up on the rocks and taking pictures. There's a beach volleyball court and a place to walk into the ocean in a little cove. We parked for free.

Quote: Commorants Photo - Lovers Point Park, Pacific Grove, California A quiet walk along the beach at Lovers' Point is always a pleasant experience, even if the day is overcast and rainy. On a sunny and clear day you can watch the SCUBA divers as the enter and leave the water from the sheltered cove area or from the more exposed bay side. Parking is available near the grassy park area. In the grassy park area, you can enjoy marble sculptures of fish and butterflies (Butterflies are one of the city symbols of Monterey).

As you walk along the manicured paths and enjoy the flowers, you can see the commarants on the nearby rocks and hear the cry of the seagulls overhead. This is the area of the bay which was once the home of the numerous sardines which made Monterey famous and accounted for the many sardine cannerys along cannery row. Sadly, the sardines and canneries are now gone replaced by numerous tourists like you and me. As you walk further out toward the Asilomar area the waves become larger as they crash against the rocks. Admire the quaint houses along this area and envy the owners for their lovely views. After you finish your walk--there are 2 nice restaurants near the parking area: The Old Bath House restaurant and the Tinnery. Both are very good, all be they a bit pricey.
