Will tonight's sunset be good in Big Sur?

The coast runs north-south, so the sun sets over the Pacific at the turnouts, not over the mountains. Fog often sits on the water and lifts just enough to light the cliffs.

Sunset in Big Sur today (Thursday, October 15) is at 6:31 PM PDT. Golden hour runs 5:31-6:31 PM and blue hour ends 7:11 PM. Tonight's SunsetPing score is 6/10: Worth stepping outside.
