点评:We were recently staying in Pebble Beach visiting family when we went to the PT. SUR STATE HISTORIC PARK.
It is a beautiful area and the highlight of the day was the three hour guided tour of the Pt. SUR Light House.
Parking is available at the base of Pt. SUR, there are only about 40 people allowed into the parking area from the main road then the gate is closed.
We were split up into two groups each with a tour guide and off we went up the hill to the lighthouse, it is a good walk uphill with a few steps so if you have walking problems it would be a challenge. You walk about a mile
During the walk uphill our guide Tom stopped a few times and explained the history and nature of this wonderful area and the history and making of the lighthouse.
You could tell he was a man who enjoyed being a volunteer guide, he really knew his stuff and was very easy to understand, one of the best guides we have ever had anywhere.
Once up the top there is a lot to see , apart from the lighthouse there are the homes that the lighthouse family lived in and other interesting buildings, go and see for yourself.
The day that we did the tour was very rough, one of the worst apparently, lots of fog which made visibility poor , did not see the lighthouse until we were nearly at the top. The wind was bad and it was very cool, so we did not see much of the coastline from up there.
I think that is what made the tour more unique, easy to see the area in great conditions but to experience it under bad weather conditions was special, really gives you a feel what it must have been like at times for the light keeper and his family living on this isolated point many years ago .
Interestingly after we left the area and continued on along the coast the sun was out and it was a glorious warm day.
The point just showed us its own identity.
Loved the tour, highly recommended .
翻译:我们最近在 Pebble Beach 探亲,当时我们去了 PT. SUR 州立历史公园。
这是一个美丽的地方,当天的亮点是 Pt. SUR 灯塔的三小时导览游。
Pt. SUR 山脚下设有停车场,从主干道进入停车场仅允许约 40 人,之后大门关闭。
我们被分成两组,每组有一名导游,然后我们上山去灯塔,上山需要走几步,所以如果你走路不方便,这将是一个挑战。你走大约一英里
在上山的路上,我们的导游汤姆停了几次,解释了这个美丽地区的历史和自然,以及灯塔的历史和建造过程。
你可以看出他是一个喜欢当志愿者导游的人,他真的很了解自己的东西,很容易理解,是我们遇到过的最好的导游之一。
一旦到达山顶,就会有很多东西可以看,除了灯塔,还有灯塔家族居住的房屋和其他有趣的建筑,您可以亲自去看看。
我们旅行的那天非常艰难,显然是最糟糕的一天,雾很大,能见度很差,直到我们快到山顶才看到灯塔。风很大,天气很冷,所以我们从那里看不到太多的海岸线。
我认为这让这次旅行更加独特,在良好的条件下很容易看到这个地区,但在恶劣的天气条件下体验它很特别,真的让你感受到许多年前灯塔看守人和他家人住在这个偏僻地方时的感受。
有趣的是,我们离开这个地区,继续沿着海岸前行,太阳出来了,这是一个温暖而美好的日子。
这个地点向我们展示了它自己的身份。
喜欢这次旅行,强烈推荐。
