Bixby Bridge

Constructed in 1932, Bixby Bridge stands as one of Big Sur’s most iconic landmarks. This imposing concrete structure, towering 260 feet (79 meters) above a deep canyon, is among the tallest bridges of its kind in the world. Spanning the rugged landscape where the canyon meets the Pacific Ocean, the bridge offers visitors a breathtaking view of the dramatic coastline. Today, travelers can drive or walk across, experiencing the engineering marvel and the stunning natural beauty that surrounds it.
