McWay Waterfall

An easy walk from the highway to a perch overlooking this spectacular 80 foot waterfall.  I could have sat on a bench all afternoon, staring at the turquoise tidal pools and breathing in the sweet smell of eucalyptus.  In the early '80s a fire and than a landslide altered the topography of the coastline.  Originally the waterfall cascaded directly into the ocean but now it hits an inaccessible sandy beach.
