It’s no secret that we love California. We loved all the great eats while living in LA, the chill vibes of San Diego, and we always dreamed of living in SF one day. Our favorite road trip in the US is, hands down, the Pacific Coast Highway.

We’ve also written travel guides for Surfing the California Coast, Big Bear, Big Sur, Bishop, Irvine, Monterey, Napa, Palm Springs, Santa Monica, Sonoma, Yosemite. It’s no wonder our friends who are California-born and raised never want to leave.

Here are some quick links to help you plan your next visit.
