Stunning Landscapes in Carmel
Our Natural Playground
Renowned for its breathtaking beauty, Carmel is a region that boasts idyllic natural landscapes, thriving flora and fauna, and year-round pleasant temperatures. This area experiences a mild, Mediterranean climate, making it an alluring destination throughout the year, with unique blooms and local animal sightings for every season.
Autumn
During the fall months, the temperature dips and the leaves subtly change color—though many of them still remain lush and verdant. Despite the shorter days, this is also the sunniest time of the year. October sees the annual Monarch butterfly migration as they make their way south.
Winter
Though winter is the coldest season of the year, temperatures in Monterey don’t tend to fall below 45°F, with an average high temperature of 60°F. This is also the best time of year for whalewatching, making for truly one-of-a-kind field trips out to the bay.
Spring
When winter’s chill warms up, spring offers some of the highest temperatures of the year, as well as a few showers. Poppies, Lupines, Indian paintbrushes, and Irises tend to blossom this time of year.
Summer
Summer's mild temperatures make for sun-kissed days that epitomize central California's beauty. Bright blooms of yellow, fuschia, and lilac brush the landscape with color.
Fauna
The lush ecosystem surrounding The Quail plays home to a variety of local fauna, including our eponymous quail, ducks, deer, and rabbits. Many herons, egrets, and hummingbirds can be found throughout the year.
