What we’re about

The Sunset Club is for people who enjoy sunsets. We meet up on the 2nd Sunday of each month to enjoy the sunset (and other special occasions like a full moon rising at the same time as the sunset), and we share photos of sunsets that we see on our own on a Facebook page ("Monterey Peninsula Sunset Club"). The club offers people a way to experience sunsets from various locations around the peninsula: Monterey, Pacific Grove, Pebble Beach, Carmel, and Seaside. It's also a great way to meet new friends. Join us if you want to expand your appreciation of sunsets, meet others who do too, and learn of locations to catch amazing sunsets in the future.

We'll try to choose a different location every month, but there will be some locations that will be repeated just because they are so amazing and accessible. Members are encouraged to suggest locations, which will allow all of us new opportunities to enjoy sunsets.

There are several other Sunset Clubs throughout California (LA, Orange County, Santa Cruz, and Sacramento). There are 2 in Washington (Seattle and Mukilteo) and 1 in McCall, Idaho. Each club has a Facebook group page (e.g. Sacramento Sunset Club, Mukilteo Sunset Club, etc.) to share photos and sunset club gathering opportunities. We will promote the gatherings on both FB and MeetUp.

The concept of the Sunset Club started in college at Loyola Marymount University (many moons ago) as a way to get together with friends and enjoy the sunset on a bluff overlooking Marina Del Rey and Venice.

We're interested in collaborating with other groups who also are interested in enjoying sunsets in amazing natural settings, so don't hesitate to reach out to co-sponsor a gathering.
