Malibu is one of my favorite places, so many beautiful beaches. I love the cliffs here, it's so pretty! Great sunset spot! Lots of parking.

Great bike and walking path. Fun to watch the surfers. Wonderful sunsets! I love this place! And plenty of options for food/drink nearby.

Such an incredible location; not just the fact that you are literally steps away from the ocean, but you are also a quick stroll to the adorable city of Carpinteria! Cute restaurants and a brewery are very close! Unfortunately it rained a ton and we had to actually evacuate b/c of flooding when we camped here, but we had a great time and can't wait to come back to this area!

Loved this hike! Scenic, quiet, and beautiful views! Easy to follow trail. We parked on the street for free. Topenga Canyon is such a cool area in Southern CA!

Guided tour, but so worth it. Colors blend together so intricately. Tour gave you a nice history of the area. Beautiful! So much to do in this area too!

Our hotel was right here, so we walked over one night and were not disappointed. Crazy sunset views without a crowd. Easy walk down some stairs and plenty of space to wander around.

Did this as a kid, so can't comment on it recently, but super fun thing to do! Easy, low key, and fun photo opportunity!

Conveniently located to lots of SW adventures! We were in a bit of a hurry, so didn't get to take a ton of pictures, but still snapped a few and are grateful we had the opportunity to stop. So definitely stop!

Unlike the author, I went left first. I enjoyed the backside view of the arches. I felt there were less people heading this way as well. Great loop, quick hike with nice views!

Great hike! Very photographic park, especially this spot! This hike leaves you plenty of time to explore other parts of the park too!

Like the description says, so uncrowded and beautiful! Easy hike to do and to follow (not get lost). We loved Canyonlands and hope to get back someday soon! The park was our favorite place in Moab!

Just like the description and so many of the reviews before me, this place is incredible! Vast, breathtaking, vibrant, and awe-inspiring are some descriptors of this beauty! Easy to get to, free parking, and the ability to just roam around! Keep on eye on your kids. Don't be dumb with selfies and cliffs.

Would go back here in a heartbeat. If you are in the area this is a MUST DO! Beautiful, tranquil, the list goes on and on....the noise of the falls is so soothing and the stroll to get there is quick and easy. There is even a viewing point that more limited mobility people can see the falls from very close to the parking lot. Clean bathrooms too!

We were staying in Eureka and our airbnb host told us about this gem! It has breathtaking views! Unfortunately we were not there during whale season like some other reviewers were! Trinidad is a tiny town, but so worth a stop!

Would totally recommend this hike! Great views of the lake all around! It was easy to follow. Did it in July and there was still a decent amount of snow, so I was grateful to have my hiking books and layers on. This lake is unlike any other lake I have seen and it was tremendous catching different angles of it.

Like everyone else has said - you can't believe this place! The shades of blue are unlike anything else. It's huge and breathtaking. Check the NPS site for road closures. Even in July there was a decent amount of snow last year. So worth the stop and I look forward to going back someday soon!

This is one of my all time favorite views. Have to time it right with the weather; last time I was in town I did it when it was cloudy, so literally coudn't see more than 10 feet in front of you and it was sooo windy! But, can't wait to come back to Slacker Hill next time I am in town! Can't beat this cityscape with the Golden Gate Bridge and beautiful water in front of it.

This and Slacker Hill are two of my all time favorite view points. So worth it to see this. Can be crowded of course. Wander up the hill more for more walking trails and views of the mountains on the other side. Incredible! One of my favorite places!!

PCH is one of my favorite places ever and this bridge is one of my favorite spots on PCH! You 100% should stop here. Can’t beat these views.

Love this place. Beautiful cliffs, water, beach and so much more! Easy parking when we went years ago. Was there on a cloudy day and there were less than 10 people!

Drive up a mountain side to get some panoramic views! There's several different paths to take from the parking lot that will guide you to different view points of the southern basin of Death Valley. Turns out this was featured in 1977 Star Wars film too!

I very much look forward to someday watching a sunset or sunrise at Zabriskie Point. We stopped here quickly and were impressed. Death Valley is one of those places that feels like it will just go on and on (in a good way!). It is vast and a less popular park (although this spot is very popular!), so very much worth a visit when it's not super hot out.

The colors and textures here are insane! Loved this hike. We did it when it was super windy, so that made it interesting at times! Be prepared to be w/out cell service throughout a lot of the park, so have a map in the car!

So glad we found this for a sunset one night. It is one of my favorite sunsets to date! Insanely dramatic colors and peaceful setting.
