Tips
China Rock, located on 17-Mile Drive, offers bikers a scenic view of the Pacific Ocean. Once home to a small Chinese fishing village in the late 1800s, it is now a peaceful spot to enjoy the rocky coastline. Situated near Point Joe and Bird Rock, China Rock is a great place to stretch your legs, breathe in the ocean air, and appreciate the area's historical significance as well as the natural beauty.

Perhaps one of the most beautiful viewpoints on the "17-Mile Drive", but the name has nothing to do with rock music from China, but is dedicated to Chinese fishermen who settled here in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
