Monterey & San Francisco | Twice the Magic, Double the Charm ππ
My second visit to Monterey was just as breathtaking as the first β if not more! The rugged coastline, the sound of crashing waves, and that fresh Pacific breeze create a symphony for the senses. Driving along the iconic 17-Mile Drive never gets old, with its dramatic views of lone cypress trees and serene ocean vistas π²πΈ. Then, it was off to San Francisco β a city that always feels both familiar and full of surprises. Of course, no trip is complete without stopping by the legendary Golden Gate Bridge π. Walking across it as the fog gently rolled in felt like stepping into a movie scene β timeless, majestic, and utterly unforgettable. For dinner, we had reserved a table at Fog Harbor Fish House at Pier 39, and it did not disappoint! ππ½οΈ The seafood was incredibly fresh β from the creamy clam chowder in sourdough bowls to the perfectly grilled salmon. The Dungeness crab cakes were a highlight, bursting with flavor and lightly crisped to perfection. Paired with a local wine and views of the bustling pier, it was a meal to remember ππ. Whether you're a nature lover, a city explorer, or a food enthusiast, this corner of California truly has it all. Already dreaming of my next trip back πβ¨. #Monterey #SanFrancisco #GoldenGateBridge #FogHarborFishHouse #CaliforniaCoast #TravelDiaries #SeafoodLover #Pier39 #WestCoastVibes
