From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rocky Creek Bridge is a reinforced concrete open-spandrel arch bridge in California, built in 1932. It is located in Monterey County a few miles south of Carmel-by-the-Sea and just north of the more famous Bixby Creek Arch Bridge on the Pacific Coast Highway. As its name implies, it spans the Rocky Creek. A carpark exists to the North-West of the bridge, for tourist use.

The vicinity ecology is noteworthy in that the marine waters at the mouth of Rocky Creek are a habitat for the endangered southern Sea otter. Additionally on a ridge above Rocky Creek is one of the few known habitats of Yadon's piperia, a USA rare and endangered species.
