🌊 West Coast
Explore stunning scenic drives across California and Hawaii — from Pacific Coast cliffs and Big Sur to tropical highways through lava fields and rainforests in the islands.
From the winding cliffside curves of California’s Pacific Coast Highway to the lush, lava-lined roads of Hawaii, the West Coast / Hawaii region offers some of the most scenic and iconic drives in the United States. This category focuses on two distinct landscapes united by their beauty and coastal allure—sun-drenched California and the tropical islands of Hawaii.
In California, road trips become legendary. Cruise through Big Sur with the ocean crashing below, explore the sun-baked freeways of Los Angeles, or ascend into the Sierra Nevada along Highway 395. From palm-lined boulevards to foggy coastal passes, every route in the Golden State offers a chance to experience a different piece of the California dream.
Over in Hawaii, the driving experience transforms into something even more intimate. Roads here hug volcanic craters, dive through rainforests, and reveal hidden beaches at nearly every turn. The Hana Highway in Maui and Saddle Road on the Big Island are just the beginning. Whether you’re navigating the city streets of Honolulu or exploring rural island roads, Hawaii invites you to slow down and embrace the spirit of aloha—one mile at a time.
