Partington Cove

Partington Cove is just another unmarked turn off on the beautiful Big Sur coastline. There is a gate and a small dirt turn out but if you didn’t know what you were looking for you would easily pass right by it. Doing that would be a mistake though as this short steep hike is one of my favorites as it takes you through a 60 foot tunnel to a immaculate cove with a single bench you can sit on at the end. A quick and steep hike takes you down through a tree-lined canyon to a scenic rocky beach and through a tunnel to Partington Cove.
