Ghost Trees at Pescadero Point — photo spot in Pebble Beach, Del Monte Forest, CA 93953, USA
Ghost Trees at Pescadero Point
Weathered Monterey cypress skeletons clinging to a wind-sculpted bluff above the Pacific create stark, graphic silhouettes—the “ghost trees.” Ideal for dramatic coastal compositions with crashing surf, kelp beds, and shifting fog. Visit sunrise or sunset for backlit silhouettes and color; foggy mornings add mood. Access via 17-Mile Drive (entry fee) or nearby public pullouts in Del Monte Forest; limited parking and steep, eroding cliff edges mean stay on designated paths. Protected trees—respect
