Trail Rides
See Pebble Beach from a new perspective with scenic horseback rides hosted by the Pebble Beach Equestrian Center. They feature options for private groups, families, corporate retreats, and even an extended ride with a picnic at Seal Beach! Make a day of it and explore the beauty of the Pacific Coastline on guided trail rides. See the colorful diversity of nature here with both beach and forest tours available to book with their respective options.

The Bagpiper at Spanish Bay
Pebble Beach cemented itself in golf history when five-time British Open champion, Tom Watson, remarked “Spanish Bay is so much like Scotland, you can almost hear the bagpipes” after completion of the aforementioned course built in the Scottish style. From that day on, a grand tradition was born from his words, and a bagpiper plays every evening to accompany the setting sun. Yearly performance times vary on factors like daylight savings and seasons, but the pipes still ring out rain or shine and have become one of the area’s most recognizable attractions.

U.S. Women’s Open Championship
This year, the renowned 2023 U.S. Women’s Open will be hosted at Pebble Beach from July 5 – 9. This is the first time in history that this event has been hosted here and we highly encourage guests interested in golf to attend this momentous occasion in the sport! Pebble Beach previously hosted the U.S. Open in 2019 and to see an event of this magnitude once again at this beautiful course is something you cannot miss! Experience the course yourself and play where the pros play with a day of golf at Pebble Beach and see why championships are held here every year.

The Salute
A special celebration of American patriots held every year from June 30th – July 4th, The Salute is Pebble Beach’s way to honor US military personnel and their families with this exclusive package. The experience includes two tickets to any day of your choice to see the 78th U.S. Women’s Open along with delicious seaside dinners, 3 rounds of golf, and more! All proceeds from The Salute will be given as a charitable donation to PGA HOPE, a Northern California branch of PGA dedicated to helping disabled veterans use golf as a means to enrich and improve their lives.

Concours d’Elegance
Lovers of classic cars or those interested in seeing some truly unique automobiles shouldn’t miss the chance to attend the 2023 Concours d’Elegance, a grand car show held in Pebble Beach since 1950.
