Windblown Pfeiffer beats out considerable coastal competition in California, thanks to stunning granite outcrops offshore—one with a tunnel worn through it. Walk on the sand 10 minutes north to Deer Canyon (there’s no sign, but it’s the only canyon you’ll see). The 1.5 mile rugged Pfeiffer Falls Trail angles up and left before ending on the bluffs. You can also hike through redwood forests to Pfeiffer Falls.
