McWay Falls in Big Sur is a stunning 80-foot waterfall that flows year-round, making it a must-see spot along the Pacific Coast Highway. Located in Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park, this tidefall either cascades into the ocean or onto a pristine cove, depending on the tide. The short and easy McWay Falls Overlook Trail offers a picture-perfect view of the waterfall, surrounded by cliffs, greenery, and turquoise waters. Remember, there's no legal access to the beach below, so enjoy the view from the overlook and snap some awesome photos!
