Kirk Creek campground has 33 (mostly tent) campsites on the west side of Hwy 1 offering fantastic views of the Pacific Oceano and Big Sur coastline. Each campsite has a parking pad, table, fire ring and pedestal barbeque. Some campsites can accommodate trailers/RVs up to 30 feet, but there are no electrical hookups. There is also no dump station. All camp roads are paved and there are flush toilets and sinks in the restrooms.

Kirk Creek is a close walk to rocky beach and it’s also close to many trails that lead into the Los Padres National Forest. Sand Dollar Beach is the largest sandy beach in Big Sur and it is about 5 miles down the highway. It’s a popular beach for surf fishing, swimming, beach combing and sunbathing. There’s also plenty of wildlife in there including fox, bobcat, deer, raccoon and an occasional bear or mountain lion.
