    About 9 miles south of Carmel-by-the-Sea, Garrapata Beach is a white sandy beach backed by the dramatic coastal landscape well known along the Big Sur coastline. Free parking is available along Highway 1 and a short hike down the bluffs, with some stairs mixed in, leads to the beach. The beach is sitting where Garrapata Creek drains into the Pacific Ocean.
