Along the Highway
Ragged Point Inn vicinity
The Ragged Point Inn vicinity is a cluster of businesses and services on a very scenic point on the west side of Highway 1. Visitors to the area need travel no further north than this to see Big Sur's famous rocky coastline at no cost. Most of Ragged Point Inn's rooms are located on a cliff's edge, 350 feet above a cove. The restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
