Carmel Gate - 17 Mile Drive Carmel Way, Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA 93921

"It was great tripand worth driving"

"This is a lovely drive to see some stunning homes on the Pebble Beach Golf course and some overlooking the ocean. Each stop has something special to offer. You will see seals, birds, and lots of scenic views along the way."

"The gate lady at 2p on 9/8 should be moved to a non customer facing role maybe cleaning up after pets. Incredibly rude first encounter before we even said a word. She was upset her card reader was down and that we didn’t have any small bills of cash. The sign literally says prefer debit and credit cards. Why was she so rude to us and why is that our problem if there is an issue. We did pay to go in, but the car in front of us didn’t seem to. This situation needs a looking into for sure, not a good experience at this “luxury” complex."

"Highlight of the area. 11.75 per car. Very nice scenic drive. See the Lone Cypress, Sealions, impressive houses and rough shores."

"While staying at the Carmel Valley Ranch, the concierge recommended we take the Carmel Gate entrance to enjoy the 17 Mile Drive. The guard gate was busy as a bee but still very friendly. The cost was cheap! ($12.00). The views were unbelievable. We went on a weekday (Monday) and although it was a holiday, it was easy to navigate. It was my first time seeing the Pacific Coast and Pebble Beach did not disappoint. The views are absolutely spectacular. I highly recommend going on a good weather day because you can see for miles and miles. And for sure the smaller your car is, the better!"
