Finding Windblown Romance in Pfeiffer Beach, California

As the heady breeze whips sand across your face, you might begin to wonder whether the struggle to find the elusive Sycamore Canyon Road that leads to secluded Pfeiffer Beach was worth the effort. But find a nook in the towering rocks that roll away to the depths of the Pacific Ocean and the special beauty of this rugged and romantic stretch of California coastline becomes apparent. On a day like today, you don’t expect a crowd, but then a large well-dressed group gathers in a sheltered spot. They turn to greet the barefoot bride who battles the breeze to stand in the sand by her groom. The sea roars its approval, and the sand spews like confetti as wild Pfeiffer Beach secures the hearts of more young lovers.
