Bixby Bridge | I-5 Exit Guide

Immersion travel along the California Highway 1 Discovery Route is the latest trend in tourism, and the best way to get to know the history and culture of the locals, and truly engage in experiences that render a deeper understanding of this diverse destination. Immersion travel is about connecting culturally to a travel destination by staying longer, which allows travelers to “immerse” themselves not only in the historic attractions found along the route, but in the cuisine, the award winning wine and beer, and the discovery of local characters who tell the back story of this diverse destination. The Stewardship Travel Program found in this region, the first of its kind in the nation, offers visitors many historic and cultural opportunities to meet locals, learn about land preservation efforts or historic town sites, or to partake in “feel good by doing good” activities like beach clean-ups and trail restorations.
