Your dad should be an audiobook narrator with that great voice 👍

California Through My Lens: Your dad is pretty great at voice-overs! He should consider hosting a podcast or doing audio book narration! 🤠

This video is just brilliant. Visuals, writing, voice-overs, pace, presentation ... it's all just perfect. You guys have outdone yourself again.

That was great! I lived in L.A. and Northern California and saw it all. We moved to Florida few years ago, but I miss the rustic beauty of CA. I miss all the hiking in the mountain, all the natural beauty. It was a treat watching your road trip with your Dad.

I've lived in California for 25 years and have visited most spots on this list on various trips, but just recently I accidentally stumbled across the Elephant Seal view point on the way to Hearst Castle and I loved it - one of my favorite little surprises along the highway.

I love the inclusion of Pops in the narration. Great idea!

Enjoy every moment you can with your dad believe me. Also you guys are a great team

👍🏼 your pops voiceover was awesome, definitely would welcome more of that.

Wow. This is the first time I've ever doing this on KZfaq. I watched this video and immediately rewatched it. I've never seen such stunning photography in my life. And the cuts are so tender and comforting, unlike the jarring cuts I see everywhere on YT nowadays. Great stuff! I have to see this channel.

Need your dad to start a book reading channel, I’d listen all day 😭

Great video ✅ Superb choices ✅ Josh never disappoints ✅ Pops narrating parts of the video, the best surprise ever!! ✅✅✅✅✅✅🙌🏼

Love all your vids - particularly loved having your Dad guest voice on this one! Awesome content!

Twenty just isn't enough. 🙂 But, your picks are great. Over the years, I have driven every mile of Hwy 1 at least three times and some segments dozens of times. I live in Fresno, so the central coast gets more of my attention than either north or south. Here are a few other suggestions: LOTS of state parks along the way, most of which (if not all) are worth at least a short stop. Some of our favorites are Limekiln SP, Montana de Oro SP, the Butterfly Grove at Pismo State Beach (seasonal), and Point Lobos State Reserve. Pepperdine University in the spring. Perhaps the prettiest site for a college campus in California. We saw some waterpolo matches there during the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics. We wanted gymnastics (like everyone else), but got waterpolo instead. Even so, we weren't disappointed. Many of the California missions are along or very near Hwy 1, including San Juan Capistrano, Ventura, Santa Barbara, La Purisima (Lompoc), San Luis Obispo, Carmel, Monterey, Santa Cruz, and San Francisco. For quirky: Gum Alley in San Luis Obispo. The very little town of Harmony. My wife like to stop to look at the arts and crafts. While see does that, I do close-up/macro photography in the gardens. More "urbany": Monterey Bay Aquarium, 17-mile Drive, Golden Gate Park, Glass Beach in Fort Bragg, the town of Medocino.

Great to see Dad and son trips. Also, enjoyed hearing narration from both.

How blessed both of you are to travel together and enjoy beautiful sights. I got back with my grandchildren driving from Monterey to Cambria. Breathless sights! Thank you for sharing😎

This is a great summery view of of PCH. Your dad's comments were straight out of a travel documentary, which it was!

Finally did this drive from San Diego up to NorCal in August 2020. It was absolutely incredible! Once you enter Big Sur the views are just breathtaking.

I think the San Mateo County to Santa Cruz segment is underrated. I enjoy that it is very scenic and relaxing, but the driving is much easier than windier segments

Just beautiful❣️. Your narration has always been clear, concise and emotive but it was lovely to hear your dad's voice also. The addition of his narrative was an enjoyable surprise. Keep it up. So nice to see such a warm father/son relationship. Love you guys 🤗🧡🌏

Thanks Gents - always a treat to see CA through your trips & tips X O California

It is so amazing that you and your dad got to do this. Now that my dad is gone I dont know what I would do for a trip like this with him, but I'm definitely happy for you guys!

Great video, PCH / SR-1 is my happy place, so many memories from over the decades

This is a great travel guide!!!

Great video a lot of info,,,davenport pier swing my favorite!!!nice to see you having fun with your dad,that's awesome!!!

I'm doing this drive in October so this video is a huge help. I didn't know about Devil's Slide but it looks like a must see.

The views of the coast are stunning. I drove part of this highway before, a few years ago, and your video brings back a lot of great memories. Likely one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen. Thank you for taking us there, my friend 🤗🙏🏽

My husband and I love your videos. This is how we plan our vacations 😁

Our family loves your videos. So fun to hear your dad’s voice over! Great job.

Beautiful! I missed trying out the clam chowders except for Boudin of course. Two days driving the PCH will not give justice to the beauty of this drive. Will give more days the next time. But i love the big sur, all the look outs, the bixby bridge, santa barbara, morro rock, solvang, cambria

Love all your videos and your awesome relationship with your dad…I wanna do the same thing with my son when he’s older

What a soothing voice your dad has .i thoroughly enjoyed your 7 day trip along PCH .so many good hikes and good and crisp editing . Great work

I spent a week there, and it remains an unforgettable memory.

My husband and I are building a tiny cottage at Timber Cove on PCH. Thank you for another wonderful video! 🥰

Yaaay! I love you and dad trips. And I love that you both narrated. Beautiful shots. Great information. Thanks for bringing me some of the road trip I love. Haven't been able to do it in way too long.

One of my favs along the Pacific coast is Point Lobos; beautiful place to walk around, explore and photograph :-)

From the UK, driven San Fran to LA twice. Pleased to say we have stopped at many of your stops between those cities, but Devil's Slide was missed, and I think I saw this on your previous video. Definitely on the list should we do the drive again! Great video as always!!

Good Job!!! I’ve lived the California coast my entire life…Starting in Redwood City & ending up in Sonoma County….Been the whole route through the years…a great reminder of many a trip through the years…

I drive Highway 1 whenever I get the chance. One recent trip to Sacramento from here in Dallas, I decided to fly into SFO, just so I could have "a little drive time" on Highway 1 and have lunch at Sam's Chowder House in Half Moon Bay. Been to Sam's at least 10 times now and it NEVER disappoints! Love that New England Clam Chowdah and Lobstah Roll! My favorite part of Highway 1? Monterey to San Luis Obispo. Look forward to returning in 2023 for another run on the PCH!! Thanks for the suggestions!! I'll have to check out the Splash Cafe soon!

Hwy 1 is beautiful. Two weeks ago, buddy and I rode our motorcycles on the 1 all the way up to Leggit from the central coast. Best view ever. Its amazing how less traffic there was up north. Great video and how much it reminds me of my trip! 👍🏻

I've seen many of the places you mentioned, but not all - makes me want to take another trip down this amazing highway! Thanks for sharing this fantastic video!

How fun!! Doing a mini version of this hitting coffee houses along the coast from Sausalito to Santa Barbara. ☕️😊

I love this channel! Thank you for the great videos. I'm a lifelong Californian and love this state!

I have followed a few videos from your channel. Very nicely presented!

Lived in LA and drove PCH as often as possible when going north and then return...Some travel writers have suggested this drive and the AU Great Ocean Drive from Melbourne to coast are most beautiful drives on the planet for ocean lovers.

I wouldn't mind pops telling me a goodnight fairytale. He's got a talent for storytelling. And the voice required.

Always amazing places Josh. Your dad was a great treat as well. The best KZfaq channel for sure so keep up the great work!!

Really cool to hear your dad doing some va work! My town is pretty close to Santa Cruz so I always love going there. Actually, I have a season pass to the Boardwalk haha. Thanks again for another great video!

Wow! I'm blown away by the exceptional narration skills of your dad! What a pleasant surprise and awesome addition to this already excellent channel! Thanks for the upload!

Hey Josh this was a great video I still haven’t made the drive on Pacific Coast Highway all the way up to Santa Cruz or beyond

Beautiful place! Great videos and good to see you and your dad together again... More power!!🙏🙏👌👍

One of the most awesome drives in this country. Every spot is my favorite spot. Oregon has those rock arches, too, off the coast.

Highly recommend you consider visiting Limekiln state park with its many redwood trails. Simply gorgeous.

I love dad’s narration!!! 😍

You & your dad have great nature narrator voices!!

Great video! Love hearing Pops narrate also 😀

Yes!! Love the pops voice over!

Thank you for this video. Your Dad has an awesome voice! I look forward to your next video!

Looking forward to seeing the full trip!

Fantastic video indeed ! Thank you both for it

How lucky you are to have your dad as a travel companion, you like to tease him a lot but he probably doesn't mind he has a good nature. This was a fantastic trip up the beautiful California coast. Yes, northern CA coastline is so beautiful and very unusually different that southern CA. I also enjoy all nice places you two get to eat some pretty fab seafood and fish tacos, can't beat that! Thanks really enjoyed your trip, just fantastic, I wish I could travel it too! Haven't been up the coast in years. 🇺🇸🌹

When I drove along the coast; I liked the little shops where you could buy homemade jewelry. I lived at Carlsbad with the beach across the highway from me. That was fun. And oh yes, loved the clam chowder places.

Awesome video. Love that your dad sharing the points! He does great.

Your "pops" did such a great job narrating!

Thank you for doing and sharing this video. Soon I will be taking a month's long road trip and decided to take highway 101. I can't wait to see what I see!

I really love this road trip. That has inspired me to travel there with my wife.

You guys did a good job. Enjoyed watching it!

About time you put Dad to work, LOL! You both have great narration skills, so kudos to Dad for that. Another awesome and helpful video. Thoroughly enjoyed it...............as usual.

Oohh, I just Tomales Bay area - went to a different fresh oyster place - lots of oyster companies along the strip there. I had smoked oysters and they were the best. A bit inland, there were also creameries where fresh cheese was made. Had a great time in the area. Love your California videos. So many hidden gems.

Jeff, you have to do audio books. I felt like grabbing a cigar and scotch listening to you talk.

Loved the dad narrating. Love this channel. Always look forward to your videos.

I just watch this whole video, and it was amazing, I felt almost like I was there with you. Beautifully done, I enjoyed every minute of this trip. I love your trips, thank you for pointing out the beauty of California's P C H. Your dad's a real hoot, thanks again. From Michigan ❤😊

Thanks for sharing your recommendations. All these spots are definitely worth a stop

You guys killed it on that list 👏 So good. I was pretty floored by the Santa Barbara Courthouse you showed, definitely want to see that in person! When you do the trip with the kiddos, try bringing them to play at Pacific Dunes Ranch near Pismo. That’s been our girls favorite spot to play at on the Coast :)

Beautiful! I hope to do a PCH road trip one day!

Flying back home from Phoenix to San Jose our plane really did a curve to head north and looking out the window from 20k feet in the air you can see Moro Rock:) nice

❤😊 this is a long awaited joy

Love Morro Bay..we had family living there in the late sixties and into the seventies! In those days it wasn’t as crowded as it is now.

This is a useful as well as delightful video. The whole PCH series looks great! Thank you for this super channel and blog!!

Natural bridges ( Bridges) yes there used to be two there, memories visiting the park years ago. Anyone have pictures of the two arches?

Well narrated, and well done. Like usual. Great content.

Dad you have a fabulous voice! Do you have now, or have you considered, making maps of all these wonderful places? I'm guessing there aren't signs for everything so I'd probably just drive by them without realizing I'd missed it. Have a dream to own a customized van and would love to just grab a map and split. Thank you again for all you both are doing to help us get out and enjoy this beautiful state.

Love this. Great intro, perfect for planning an itinerary. Great that you and your dad both narrated - sounds like it was a fun trip.

Just watched the 2 hr Hwy 1 video. Love you guys. Great stuff!

Yup it’s official. Your dad show now be the official voice over talent for all your videos 😂

I lived in Santa from 1968 to 73, l was 8yrs old to 13yro, l remember.the bord walk very well ! When l was growing up the giant dipper was called the big dipper and they also had a ride called the wild mouse, l am 64 now living in Texas, man l miss those days.✌️

Great video, great visuals & great narrations, would request for a similar video about Lake Superior or Lake Michigan or Lake Huron. Thanks

I just found you, I'll be doing this trip in a few weeks and am super excited so this is an awesome channel. I'll watch the longer video too, thank you for sharing your experiences. It'll be just me & my dog so, hopefully, there are plenty of dog-friendly activities.

Great photography. I have not been down to that beach with the elephant seals yet

Pacific Coast Highway: 20 Great Stops on the Road Trip. Interesting and engaging video. I support your video. Watched the video on Sep 6, 2022 very like. Thank you so much

We did Pfeiffer Falls back in 2012 and somehow ended on a side track. We met a botanist who told us that Bob Cats are common in the area we walked through 😳

I pretty much say the same thing every time. Love your videos.

Love to hear your dad’s voice! Nice touch. Not that we don’t love your voice, of course.

Mendocino is beautiful 😍

Heading to your part of the world in March! - really appreciate your videos, they are excellent - thanks!

I’m not a seafood fan, so i would change those spots for Davenport, 17 mile drive, Avila and Pismo Beach. Other than that couldn’t agree more with your choices

Great job Pops !

Perhaps it's in your full video, but one of my favorite spots on the PCH is Point Lobos south of Carmel. Blessings, Glen

Elephant seals are more exciting to visit in the breeding season, like rainy February. Bull elephants can be bigger than pickup trucks. And the Santa Crux boardwalk was heavily featured in the 1987 movie The Lost Boys about vampires.

Morro Rock/Morro Bay is my favorite summer vacation spot next to The Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk is the best bargain amusement park. Location is a ten, entertainment is a ten, atmosphere is a ten. Natural Bridges is my childhood hangout. The elephant seals of San Simeon are great. This is a great video. I have seen and done them all.

Always love your vlogs, but in my 55 years living in the East Bay/Stockton area, I've not heard one person up here call CA-1 the "Pacific Coast Highway/PCH" north of Los Angeles County. I've always heard CA-1 called "One, "Highway One," or, less frequently, the "Coast Road" Wikipedia seems to support this, FWIW. Must be a SoCal thing!
