Rancho Tularcitos was a 26,581-acre (107.57 km2) Mexican land grant in present day Monterey County, California given in 1834 by Governor José Figueroa to Rafael Gómez.

The grant was in the upper Carmel Valley, along Tularcitos Creek, and was bounded on the west by Rancho Los Laureles.

[2] Rafael Gómez (1784-1838), born in Mexico, came to California in 1830 as a legal advisor to Governor Manuel Victoria.

Gómez was a supporter of Figueroa, but resigned his position, and was granted the six square league Rancho Tularcitos in 1834.

With the cession of California to the United States following the Mexican-American War, the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo provided that the land grants would be honored.
