A must visit to get maps and visitors information. Especially given the lack of cellphone reception and the inability to look up things but rather go back to the natural and social ways of asking and communicating with people to learn.

If you're traversing the Pacific Coast Highway, ensure you stop by here. There's a visitor center with friendly staff selling souvenirs, proceeds from which go towards preserving and maintaining the area. I was also provided with a map of the area and recommendations for nearby stops for my trip. Clean restrooms onsite.
