Kirk Creek Campground
Kirk Creek Campground
   KIRK CREEK CAMPGROUND : Located on an open bluff, 100 feet above sea level, this campground is open all year, located on an open bluff 100 feet above the ocean, just off Highway one in the Los Padres National Forest. There are 33 campsites, and tent sites are available as well. Along with a lovely view of Los Padres National Forest, there is access to the beach and each of Kirk Creek’s 33 sites has a view of the ocean and the spectacular Big Sur Coast. With a generous 2-week potential, the plausibility for exploring the 75 miles of untamed Big Sur Coastline is doable. Kirk Creek is an excellent place to camp and see the sites. It is a wonderful place to experience both the beauty of the land and sea.

There is a 14-day maximum stay period and the fees are $18.00 per night, per site, 6-8 people per site. Bicycle or walk-in/tent camping $5.00 per night.
