Answer 3

Depends on where you're starting from.  

Northern California

The North Coast is nice if you want seascapes.  Yosemite, of course, as has been mentioned a number of times.  Tahoe, too.  You don't have to get too far out of San Francisco on Highway 101/1 to get some really nice views, too.  Half Moon Bay area.

Central California

San Luis Obispo and north from there on Highway 1.  All the way up to Santa Cruz (including Monterey).  The southern end of the Sierras outside of Bakersfield up 178 toward Kernville and Isabella Lake.

Southern California

Joshua Tree.

Answer 4

Try a swamp, seriously. They are never done and your perception of them will be unique.

Answer 5

la jolla

Answer 6

I would highly recommend Monterey, Yosemite, and Lake Tahoe.

Good luck!
