Carmel River State Beach

In southeast Carmel, Mission Trail Park has 35 acres of paths. You may take a wonderful little walk down to the Carmel Mission Basilica if you enter the trail system via Mountain View Avenue (where it changes into Forest Road). You can also access the park via Rio Road, which is just across from the mission.

Water, Wine Tasting, and Dog Treats Bring your good friends and enjoy a flight of amazing Pinot Noir from Monterey County.

This is a lovely beach with the world's happiest dogs — you'll see dogs of all shapes, sizes, and ages running in the sugar sand and splashing in the blue surf. At the Ocean Avenue end of Carmel Beach, there are public bathrooms and a public phone.

Monica will show you around Carmel's top art studios, eateries, and houses. Your pet is invited to accompany you on your tour.
