Big Sur Kayak Fishing? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

What Dan said, or Mill Creek just south of the 'Kiln, or keep going a little more to the pirate launch at Pacific Valley. Then there's Willow at the far south end a bit past Jade Beach. All of these are brutal at times.

Every time I've seen it, the south end of Sand Dollar has been mellow, but there's no way I'm dragging a decent open water 'yak down those hell stairs.

If you're talking the north end of Big Sur, you might look at Garrapata. Again, its a DIY deal, with goat trails and short cliffs to deal with. I haven't crossed this one off my list yet. Andrew Molera used to be do-able, but the MLPA beat me to it. Pfiefer Beach would be insane, that area's a wind tunnel and the surf always seem to be pumping.

Good luck.
