  At San Simeon visit Hearst Castle, a testimonial to publisher William Randolph Heart and his empire. The construction of the castle started in 1920 and was not yet finished when Hearst died in 1951. This castle, with its private zoo and celebrated antiques, occupies an area of 137 acres. Its unforgettable gold-faced swimming pool impresses all visitors. In 1958, Hearst's children donated the castle to the state of California, and it became a public treasure. A visit to Hearst Castle and San Simeon is not complete without a quick drive up the coast to visit the home of one of California’s largest populations of elephant seals. So, you will stop by the coast to visit these lovely elephant seals playing or resting on the sandy shores. Come back to the bay area in the afternoon.
