Pfeiffer Beach – Big Sur, CA

#springitinerary Pfeiffer Beach in spring felt like a secret coastal gem! The famous purple sand was vivid after winter rains, and the keyhole rock formations created magical light shows at sunset. Cool breezes made exploring the beach comfy, and wildflowers dotted the bluffs above. I arrived early to claim a quiet spot and watched pelicans soar overhead. The waves were powerful, and the whole place had a raw, untamed beauty. #springitinerary tip: bring cash for the entry fee and check tide times if you want to see the best rock arch glow. Absolutely stunning!
