1. Romantic Inn in downtown Pacific Grove
|
|
| Turn of the century Victorian which is one of the things that makes Pacific Grove great. Reasonable rates, walk into town and down to the ocean. Best for couples on a romantic getaway |
|
|
2. Romantic Historic Restaurant
|
|
| Robert Kinkaids White House Restaurant is a fully restored, turn of the century Victorian located in downtown Pacific Grove. Dining here is like stepping back in time. Very romantic, private dining rooms, outdoor patio and a price fixe three course dinner for just $37. |

3. Picnic at the Park
|
|
| Lovers Point Park is a large area with plenty of area to enjoy a picnic lunch or dinner on the grass or at a picnic table with barbecue's available. There is also a beach area and of course wonderful views of the ocean and the Monterey city skyline. Very peaceful. Walkable from downtown Pacific Grove. |

5. Scenic Drives around town
|
|
| Pacific Grove has several great scenic drives. The first is simply through historic downtown (charming shops, restaurants and cafe's and old Victorian homes). Second, is the drive down Ocean View Blvd. If you take it heading back towards Monterey, you will pass by some of the most breathtaking B&B's in the country (Green Gales Inn, Seven Gables Inn, Martine Inn) with the ocean on the other side of your view. If you take this road towards Pebble Beach, you will view some multi-million dollar ocean view homes, the rocky coast and ocean and during the right season the blooming purple ice plant. At the end, you can easily access the gateway to 17 Mile Drive. |
