We're staying in Monterey for a few nights in a few weeks time. Part of our initial plan had us driving to San Simeon via Big Sur and then probably back via 101 for an interesting day trip.
I've now realised as I'm plugging this all into Google maps that there are numerous closures on Highway 1 and that this isn't possible at the moment and is highly unlikely to be possible for our trip end May.
We'd still like to do this drive as much as we can, but I'm unsure now where we should drive to (to head back up to Monterey). On maps it says that the road is blocked just north of Gamboa Point and the last point before that is Gamboa Point Beach - a trip of some 50 miles. Is this point make sense to head back from?
