I was here on 10/3/2020.It was easy to find parking,no entrance fee. no parking fee .There is a dramatic granite arch, where the 2 rocks in a perpetual kiss, as well as the waves crashing behind and underneath of them.It is popular destination for everyone!One of the most romantic spot in this Bay Area.I had a spectacular view of them from those benches near by.Hiking a long the coast is my favorite, I enjoy to hear the soundtrack of the waves hugging the rocks.Climbing on those interesting rocks formation of the Pacific Grove.I’m highly recommend this kissing rock view to everyone like outdoor.

Very beautiful will definitely go back. Its nice once in awhile to visit beautiful spots in monterey. Grew up in the area my whole life but rarely take a moment to enjoy the sites. This spot was a much needed fresh breathe of air.

You should definitely stop and sit at here for at least a minute! These rocks really do look like theyre kissing! This entire area is just so beautiful!

Beautiful scenery!! Colorful beach atmosphere. There’s a lovely trail walk besides the magnificent beach. It’s so much dreamy to walk leisurely while watching the awesome waves in the Pacific Ocean. In spring there were pretty pink little wildflowers everywhere near the trail. Those were adding a special beauty to the beach scenery. Kissing rocks and the crashing waves, are just surreal to sit and watch. Great !!

This place is really cool. We go here once in a while to just get away. I dig it

Enjoyed watching the golfers swing away and to the left is the ocean it was a gorgeous day to be out for some R&R therapy due to Corvid-19.

Great tourist spot for anyone out of town visiting Pacifica/Monterey. Lots of people generally (even slightly during the pandemic). But the views here are great and its also a great photo spot for photoshoots.

This entire area of the central coast is spectacular

What a beautiful picnic and trail area! Nice spot for a relaxing moment. The deer seemed to be domesticated as they are very familiar with people in their space.

I love this place and everytime I come here its so relaxing and calm and I just love it here

Theres a wonderful walking path that runs along Ocean View Boulevard and you can see everything, the waves crashing against the rocks, people bicycling by, perfect place to relax and take it all in. Theres steps to go down to the bottom where you can see seals sunning themselves on the rocks.

Not much to see. Nice little drive

Pretty neat and tide pools were exciting! Found tons of shelled crabs.

Always a great place to catch a photo

This is the most cutest rock ever!..it would be the perfect place to take your Love too!

Great view

Away from the crowds of Lovers Point, The Kissing Rock is our go to place to take in the senic bay. There are several benches to relax and view an array of diverse wildlife in both the air and sea.

Love it here, the ocean, wildlife, whats not to love

Loved the coastal breeze, seagulls and rocks! Awesome experience!

Didn’t know at the time that this spot was called the kissing rock but loved it just the same! Beautiful sunset viewing spot!

Its beautiful scenery! Taking a walk along the path in Pacific Grove and stopping at the rock is a must for sightseers!

There are a lot of photoshopped pictures of this place... but if you’re driving by and the area is in bloom, I find that it’s quite magical regardless. Just don’t let pictures deceive you.Directions to find:Follow the coastline of Pacific Grove until you reach Esplanade Park (a grove of trees). The kissing rock is across the street on the ocean side. N 36° 38.080 W 121° 55.488

Love the ocean and kissing rock is beautiful

Parking is only on the road here. There was a man and his son who sat there fishing the entire time. Spent maybe 5 minutes here.

Good place! Nice ocean colorizing, good waves.

Good for viewing, and great for fishing.

The waves were crashing right between the rocks. It was awesome

Thos is an amazing view veri romantic spot love the views

Nice resting spot for walking from lovers point to alisomar

Nice refreshing breeze will greet you here. A romantic spot with gorgeous views. While we were there I was even fortunate enough to capture a passing whale and save the moment in my pictures.

Nice and relaxing even in social distancing times

Peaceful landscape. Nice walks. Lots of benches.

An interesting rock formation that creates a small arch just off the shoreline. Easy to stop on the side of the road and see or take a quick photo.

Just a great place to share a moment with the one you love!!!

This place was so beautiful. The rocks really do look like they are kissing.There is a little park across the street.It is very ro.antic and beautiful place to visit.

Nice views. Close to golf. Can get cold and windy

Beautiful place to go... especially if your stressed,sad...go here and it will cheer you up.

Slow driving area & cool. take care of warm

Beautiful location. Peaceful.

Just a beautiful place to enjoy the sea. Montereys shore side walking trail is one of its best features. I have walked the entire line over the years and am never disappointed.

Nice jogging trail.

If you are in Pacific Grove - you can stop to take a photo

Beautiful days mean beautiful sceneries. Absolutely breath taking!

I was just out for a walk in Pacific Grove when I came upon this rock formation. At the time I didnt know the name of it until I finished my walking for the day and looked up the information. This is what I saw when I came upon the rocks; the rocks looked like a female and male lion who are kissing. I said this has to be named something and laughed! Well now I know it is! LOL! I enjoyed the area very much because it was peaceful, calm and quiet. There are benches everywhere to sit and relax even more. Enjoy!

Beautiful romantic spot.

Beautiful flowers during spring time!

Check this out, the rocks are kissing.

Very cute. Shared a selfie kiss in front of it!

Really beautiful, calm and serene location. We loved hanging out the Kissing Rock and took lots of pictures. There are benches ever couple of meters for relaxing and people walk around on the dedicated path.

Beautiful, peaceful spot. I did a quick rock balance there.

Kissing rock is a beautiful place to sit and watch the Monterey coastline; and, a good spot to be with your significant other and steal a kiss.

Can see all the boats and great exposure to the ocean and its surroundings

Beautiful place! Love the pictures you can get here. Dont love all the bird poop that covers a lot of the rocks though!

Beautiful place to watch the sunset!! ️️

What can I say, its Monterey! Spent a full hour sitting on a bench watching the waves crash onto the shore. Best way to start my day. Friendly locals are willing to share stories of the kissing rock. Great walking path all along Ocean View.

Great spot to do some hanging out, rock fishing, and if you have kids, also a good spot to hop along rocks and explore the sea life.

The most beautiful place on earth

Beautiful walk along the ocean

Superb views

I love this place

Great viewpoint, and it was fun to explore the rock formations.

Beautiful

Lovely place.....

It looks nice, but after all theyre just rocks in water.

Great place to relax after scuba diving.

B... E... A... UTIFUL place to be

The majestic Pacific Ocean meets beautiful Monterey Bay...what more needs to be said? Aaaahhhhh

I was there to see what others were seeing. Nature, as the seas clash with land. In a glorious and as inspiring way.

0/10, did not get kissed

This park has ane expansive lawn and numerous picnic tables.

A must go! Gorgous area love the rocks and a perfect spot for a kiss

Great place I LOVE this place I find it very relaxing during the day and very ROMANTIC during the evening and the sunsets are so B E A U T I F U L!

Perfect place to sit and relax, or take a walk along the trail.

Very beautiful

Great place to take ur girl or man

Beautiful place, good starting point for a walk along the ocean trail.

Great view of the Bay and a great place to steal a kiss from you honey

Want to go back.

Reminds me of the Kissing Camels at Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs.

Rather a unique rock formation that gives good views of the bay

Situated close to the coast, these rocks just pop out . Beautiful sea behind, a serene surrounding, a walking trail along the coast and place to get closer to the waves and water, doesnt gets any better .

Beautiful

I find it hilarious that I was wandering around out here enjoying the ocean and rocks and nature for half an hour and I never even noticed that the rocks were kissing. Stop for a moment and notice it for me, since I missed it, will you?

Bring ur hot date here

Beautiful views of the ocean

Gorgeous views near Monterey

The waves are awesome and its very beautiful here

We kissed there

Not too pretty
