The City of Carmel-by-the-Sea recognizes the importance of outdoor activities and exercise during this challenging time of COVID-19. Just because the State and County stay-at-home orders have been modified, it does not mean things are going back to normal. It is important that we all continue to stay close to home, practice physical distancing, and avoid congregating with others outside our immediate household. All of these measures will help lessen the spread of the COVID-19 virus.
