🇺🇸 Carmel-by-the-Sea: The Heart of California's Fairytale Town 🏡🌊

If you’re visiting Carmel, the one place you can’t miss is Carmel-by-the-Sea – the charming main commercial street lined with unique boutiques, art galleries, and Instagram-worthy restaurants! 🎨🍷 While many mention it, it can still be confusing for first-timers, so here’s a clear guide👇： By the Sea is the vibrant hub of Carmel, filled with quirky shops and high-end (but pricey!) restaurants. Perfect for a meal and photos, but budget wisely! 📸💸 At one end, you’ll find Carmel Plaza – a sunken shopping area near luxury brand stores 🛍️💎. At the other end, the street leads directly to the beach and ocean – ideal for a stroll after shopping! 🌅👣 ⏰ Shops close early, so don’t arrive too late! #UniqueBoutiques #HiddenGems #ChillVibes #RomanticDining #CarmelByTheSea #Monterey #California #CaliforniaTravel #USA 🇺🇸✨
