Highway 1 Big Sur Coastline - Ride and Photo Tips (UV Filter)

The California Coastline from Carmel and Big Sur offers dramatic scenery and enjoyable riding. This section of Highway 1 defines micro climates. On my most recent ride the weather was a typical 60's temp and mostly clear. However the section from just north of Bixby Bridge to the Andrew Molera State Park was very windy. The wind was pushing the bike around and could be difficult conditions for a beginning rider. Always be prepared for changing weather and visibility.

Photo Tip: Fighting haze with a UV filter

Fog and haze often pose a challenge to photographers on the California Coastline. A UV (ultraviolet) filter cuts the UV rays that make this fog and haze visible and will cut the blue tint; making your photos look much better with more definition and contrast.


HWY 1 Carmel Highlands - No Filter: This photo of a cove in Carmel HIghlands was taken with a Canon S80 digital camera without a filter.
