Andrew Molera State Park

Andrew Molera State Park offers an authentic, back-to-basics escape along the iconic Big Sur coastline. Nestled within a stunning landscape of golden meadows and coastal bluffs, this park is defined by its raw, natural beauty and proximity to the Pacific Ocean. Visitors will find themselves immersed in a tranquil environment far removed from the bustle of modern life, perfect for those looking to reconnect with the outdoors in a serene, undeveloped setting.

This campground is exclusively suited for tent and car camping enthusiasts who are prepared for a rustic experience. Because the site does not offer hookups or modern amenities, it is best suited for self-sufficient campers who enjoy a primitive atmosphere. The terrain is generally accessible, making it a welcoming destination for beginner campers looking to experience the classic California state park lifestyle without the complexity of advanced backcountry trekking.

Located just 8.5 miles from Big Sur, the park serves as an ideal home base for exploring the central coast. Whether you are planning a weekend getaway or a stop along Highway 1, the park provides a quiet, year-round sanctuary for travelers seeking the simplicity of traditional tent camping under the stars.
