CA HWY 1 - Now. Help Us Trip Plan.

I believe that CA-1 is still closed north of Ragged Point due to the huge landslide that buried the highway. From the Caltrans website it appears that the highway is scheduled to reopen at the end of September 2018.

Truck Camper, about 21'. Was thinking the enroute camping (overnight in day use parking) at applicable CA State Beaches. Their web site isn't the easiest though.

Was kind of thinking the state beach campgrounds. Or buy a season state park day pass, if such a beast. Just want more freedom than reservations dictating how slow or fast you travel.

Best camp advice for doing it cheap and with no reservations? All self contained, but want to do the must sees.

Start - Beyond Santa Barbara and up through Santa Rosa. Go slow enough to see what's great, and keep moving up the coast, on the coast HWY 1.

Any advice for this trip? End of March-April?

Need more detailed info as to what you want to do and see.
Define cheap! Rving along the Calif. coast without resevations can be difficult at best! Wanting to do the "must sees" will put in all the places where most people will be and will be looking for RV park sites. A general approx. price of RV parks along the Calif. coast will be around $50 per night.

If your going to travel Hwy 1 with a trailer. No need to say your going to take it slow. That's the only way you will be able to. Its brutal for towing on. Specialty after Bodega...Good luck. Your going to need it.
