A Monaco billionaire and real estate heir has agreed to provide public access to a scenic oceanfront property in Big Sur, California. The agreement, reached with the Coastal Commission, guarantees permanent public access to a 2.5-acre parcel along Highway 1, which includes the famous Bixby Bridge. This move is expected to alleviate some of the disruptions to tourism that Big Sur's approximately 2,000 residents have faced over the past decade. Since 2020, visitors have been unable to eat or stay in the area, but this new deal may change that, offering breathtaking views and renewed opportunities for tourism.
