Carmel-by-the-Sea Highlights: Self-Guided Driving Audio Tour

The writers, painters, poets, actors, producers, and photographers who founded Carmel by the Sea left a legacy of beauty and freedom to reach for the stars. This self-guided driving tour puts the stories about it all in your ears, while you take the wheel.

As you experience all the best things to do in Carmel, you're in control of your own vehicle. The audio tour's autoplay feature takes you behind scenes where you can get a feel for this special place. See the galleries, shops, and restaurants, and check out Carmel's must-see landscapes including the lone pine and one of the longest white-sand beaches in California.

The homes here are unlike anything you've ever seen, even the gardens and fences are artistic expressions!
