Have you ever dreamed of staying at a real lighthouse? Now you can. Explore nearby tidepools, and beaches, hike Montara mountain, and use the hostel as your base as you explore nature and encounter marine mammals and birds. Make your dreams a reality on the beautiful California Coast!

Picture It

Pt. Montara is the ideal location for tide pooling, hiking and sea kayaking.  That's exactly what you'll get to enjoy when you sign up for this getaway.  Depending on the time of year, you may see gray whales migrating, harbor seals playing offshore or seabirds migrating on the Pacific thruway. After a long day exploring the coast, relax at the Pt. Montara Lighthouse Hostel and meet people from all over the world.  You can discover other cultures just by hanging out in the hostel dining room.  There's no better way to get to know an international traveler than by sharing a meal with them!  Why not check out what the Lighthouse and Hostelling International have to offer?
