A short drive from Big Sur, Pebble Beach, and the famous Monterey Bay Aquarium, the city of Carmel-By-The-Sea has a lot to offer outside of it’s walls. But, with all the wonderful, fairytale-esque, boutique shops and restaurants, visitors find little reason to take any of those drives. Come for Courtney and Tim’s wedding, stay to explore this, arguably the most beautiful part of the California coast.
