The best part of your visit to Carmel is sure to be a leisurely stroll along the Scenic Road Walkway, a 1.2 mile (2.1 Kilometer) long walkway that runs along the coastline and through some of the most popular sights. Stroll along the white sand beach and enjoy the cool ocean breeze, take in gorgeous views of the bright azure Carmel Bay waters, admire the beautiful homes that line the street, and watch the gorgeous sunset. Overall, a walk along the Scenic Road Walkway is a highly memorable one.
At this gallery, you can find photographic art of the beautiful Monterey Peninsula. The gallery exhibits the breathtaking photography of Helmut Horn. Particularly inspiring and breathtaking is Horns' Rising Storm and Last Light. Gary Geigers' Yellow Pots photographic art is intriguing. Another equally impressive work is The Eighth Hole at Pebble Beach by Joan Dost. The photographic art displayed in this gallery is exquisite and not to missed on your visit to Carmel.
Art exhibits are held year-round in the gallery portion of this venue, while small onstage productions take place in adjacent Cherry Hall. (The word "hall" is a bit of a misnomer as the theater seats only 50 people.) This is quite the community venue. It has been established for more than 50 years. Its small size and central location make it ideal for experimental and children's theater groups. The gallery shows a broad spectrum of styles and media, often featuring local artists and crafters. Note: Credit card acceptance varies by event. See website for schedules and more.
Built in 1910, this amphitheater (and the oldest community theater in the west) provides outstanding acoustics in a breathtaking and intimate setting. The theater frequently hosts great events, including musicals, plays, films and much more. Their wonderful productions can be perfectly enjoyed with a glass of wine and some snacks that you're welcome to bring along with you. This Forest Theater in Carmel is a truly unique and magical experience and should not be missed when in the city.
