Destination Overview

Overview

Renowned for its spectacular sandy beach, Carmel-by-the-Sea is a romantic seaside destination. A charming coastal resort that captivates visitors with an enchanting village ambience, Carmel exists in a setting that’s delightfully removed from the world. A paradise for art lovers, Carmel is home to over 50 art galleries showcasing high-quality fine art collections.

The fun in visiting Carmel lies in the discovery of its unique specialty boutiques on quaint streets and hidden in passageways and courtyards. A stroll through this town is like going on a treasure hunt that unveils one-of-a-kind shops. A lot of surprises await the tourist on holiday to Northern California who takes the time to explore the area, such as the Cottage of Sweets which sells imported English candies. Mission Ranch has a gourmet restaurant that provides amazing views of the Santa Lucia Mountains and the Pacific Ocean. Diners can also enjoy piano concerts and live jazz with their Sunday brunch.

Northern California

Romance finds a home in the idyllic region of Northern California, where fog rolls in from the ocean to blanked redwood forests as whales make an appearance offshore. Northern California boasts natural areas with dramatic cliffs of granite, unusual erosion-created rock formations, caves, headlands and rock-enclosed ponds that continue to form. Waves crash on the rocks as tidal pools reveal some of the small marine life. Interesting hiking trails afford travellers fabulous views of the ocean, meadows and headlands. While strolling the towns of Northern California, tourists will stumble upon quaint artisan boutiques, world-class art galleries, inviting fine-dining restaurants and cute one-of-a-kind shops. Visitors on holiday in Northern California can spend a day at the beach or take scenic walks along the stunning coastline. And as would be expected, Northern California offers a host of interesting festivals and cultural events throughout the year, with an abundance of music concerts, films and theatre performances to be enjoyed.

When to visit Carmel by the Sea

Carmel by the Sea

The best time to visit Northern California is between the months of April and May. Springtime offers warmer weather with fewer crowds and food festivals. Summer is the most popular time to visit Northern California, but be warned: although the sun’s rays are at their strongest, the region can still be chilly.

Situated right on the ocean, this region experiences bitter winds so be sure to pack a sweater no matter which season you visit. Autumn is another good time to visit, although the likelihood of rain increases beginning from October. Expect fewer crowds on holiday to the United States and more rainfall during the winter months.

Springtime Treats

April through June in Northern California is the period during which the chance of showers begins to drop while temperatures rise. Expect fewer crowds on at the main attractions than during the summer season, although the annual music, arts and gastronomy festivals draw lots of visitors on a United States holiday to the region. Attend the springtime food festivals such as the Pebble Beach Food & Wine and the Artichoke Festival that’s held in Castroville that dish out delectable treats. The California Roots Music and Arts Festival is also not to be missed.

Summer Elegance

Perpetually chilly, Northern California is at its warmest during the summertime. Expect bigger crowds on during your summer holiday in Northern California at the main attractions. This is a particularly popular period for car enthusiasts to visit as the classic collector automobiles can be spotted on the motorways, as well as on display throughout the city. Car lovers can get their fix at the Monterey Car Week & Concours D’Elegance while music lovers will appreciate the Monterrey Jazz Festival. This is also when the California State Fair comes to town.

Autumn Fests

Come October, the crowds in Northern California begin to wane, as the temperatures begin their steady decline. The coolest temperature drops occur in the mornings and evenings, offering an ideal time to enjoy outdoor activities. Despite the undesirable temperatures, some of the most popular events of the region are held during these months. Film buffs on a United States tour can indulge in the Carmel International Film Festival which has drawn famous actors in the past; therefore you never know who you could run into.

Winter Rain

Northern California does not experience harsh winters, although this is the period during which the area sees most of its rainfall with temperature highs ranging from 12-15 degrees Celsius. Expect fewer crowds and more rainfall during the winter months in Northern California. Attend the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am, which has hosted some of the top golfers in the country including Tiger Woods, along with famous tournament regulars. Sporting enthusiasts should make some time for the California International Marathon.
