Point Lobos California State Park
The Greatest Meeting of Land and Water
I love visiting our National and State Parks, theyโre little natural gem’s preserved throughout the state of California and all over the United States. (I visited the worlds giants last month.) I mentioned earlier this week that we frequent Carmel by the Sea but this is the first time we visited Point Lobos. I knowโฆ I’m ashamed to admit it. But this time we drove into the state park and explored, as you can see I wasn’t prepared for how cold it was. I brought out a big sweater that I planned on sleeping in so sorry if I look less than fabulous =).
Point Lobos has some of the most gorgeous hiking trails that I’ve seen in my travels. The majestic trees tower over you while you hear the ocean waves crashing in the distance. Many of these trails follow the shoreline and lead to hidden coves. As we walked along the trails we saw lots of deer prancing around the woods, as you can see from the photos above. I also did a Vine video of them running – I suggest taking a look because it’s very cute! (If you’re on vine make sure to follow me, just look up Stylishlyme)
Other wildlife include seals, sea lions and sea otters, but we missed seeing whales.
Landscape artist Francis McComa’s bold but justified claim for Point Lobos remains unchallenged. All who come here agree that the beauty of this tree-clad headland is unequaled. Walk gently. Breathe deeply. Reflect. Discover its spirit for yourself.
Point Lobos is a must visit. Nestled on the south end of Carmel right off the famous California Hwy 1. Have you ever been to Point Lobos?
Stay Stylish,

Gorgeous pics! I love visiting state parks and camping. The pic of the deer is really cute!
The little pops of green in your outfit are very nice! I actually like the baggy sweater on you–it sort of fits with the natural theme.

Oh dear, this is so beautiful! I hope I can come to the US and visit all the parks one day. I promised myself to take my daughters to Australia, as I lived there and it is such a beautiful country, with lots of animal. And my second dream is to visit the US west coast and all the National Parks. Sometimes if feels a bit “small” and far from nature being in France, even though we do have lovely places, but they are unfortunately very crowded most of the time. What I liked in Australia was the feeling of being the first human being to ever set foot in those amazing places.
