What to expect
The Mission is a National Historic landmark and it’s where Carmel began. Father Serra was the head of the California Mission. He built the mission in 1771 and is buried there too.
This stands out as one of the best shorelines you'll ever get to see. You can bring your dog, it's gigantic, and it's really clean. The colors are amazing from the white sands to the shifting blue shades of the ocean.
The House of Hansel & Gretel
These two houses are named Hansel and Gretal and were built by Hugh Comstock. He set the tone of this fairy land town and it all started with the houses he built here.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
