Yep, Morro Rock - really the southern coastal end of one of the most scenic drives anywhere - Highway 1 Morro Bay to Carmel!
One of the strangest fog pictures I've ever seen was taken here - the fog was in a low bank about 150 ft thick right to waters edge but then arched up and over the rock. One morning (w/o camera - grrr) we drove through and perched on fence posts at the side of the highway were probably a dozen buzzards, all perched in the same strange wings out, head up posture they get at times.
Perhaps not as famous as the Monterey/Carmel end of the drive, the Montana de Oro area, the bay, dunes and estuary are worthy destination points for photography as well.
