Experience Carmel, CA

Carmel, CA is what most people call the gorgeous small town Carmel-by-the-Sea, a top destination for anyone who loves beautiful beaches. Many believe that this town has the most beautiful beach in the entire world. Clint Eastwood liked it so much that he became the town's mayor for a few years. The town is also located very close to the extraordinary Pebble Beach Golf Course. If one can afford the greens fees, it is well worth the time and money to play a game at this premiere course. The town is located in Monterey County, CA on the west coast of the United States of America. It was founded in 1902 on the Monterey Peninsula.

One thing that is interesting about this gorgeous town is that it is very friendly to dogs. Most of the hotels are fine with guests letting their dogs sleep in the rooms with them. Dogs are allowed in all of the fancy outdoor dining areas that are offered by the upscale restaurants in the town. Most of these establishments will even offer water bowls to the dogs. Some even have menus filled only with dog treats. Dogs can even come into many of the town's stores with their owners. Maybe the most unbelievable fact is that if they are under the vocal command of their human masters, dogs are allowed on Carmel City Beach without leashes. It is almost unbelievable that this town exists in the United States, let alone California, but there are still some places where freedom has not been completely crushed by people who know better than the common man.

 A nice visit to the worlds shortest parade in Aptos needs a little restraint.

Although, the town does have its own share of unusual laws. One municipal code outlaws the wearing of shoes with heels that are over than two inches tall or with a base that is under one inch in diameter. However, this regulation can be overcome by obtaining a permit. This regulation was put into law in the 1920s. Tree roots were pushing up the pavement, and the city didn't want to be sued by women who tripped. Clint Eastwood overturned another odd law. The selling and consumption of ice cream on the street had been illegal within the city limits for as long as anyone could remember. Eastwood used this issue to gain office and promptly worked with the city council to overturn the regulation.

Carmel, CA is a beautiful place with nice people and happy dogs. Everyone should visit it before they die.
