What a find! We've been going to Cambria for several years and I don't know how we missed this. BEAUTIFUL trails with whimsical benches. Can't wait to go back. You can meander along the cliff trail and return on the upper trail.....or save one for another day. We brought a little snack and watched the waves. Easy easy walk for any age.

Stepladder Creamery is a small farmstead goat dairy and creamery just north of Cambria. We create small batch, handmade cheeses with milk from our herd of LaMancha goats and artisan cow's milk cheeses using milk exclusively from the Cal Poly dairy program. Join us for a tour and cheese tasting on our private ranch - it's a lovely escape! You'll get to play with our loveable goats, learn about cheesemaking and taste our seasonal cheeses. You can join our Cheese Club for exclusive cheeses and benefits too! All visits must be booked online in advance. We are not open to the public without reservations and we do not allow dogs on the ranch (since our herd protector dogs can be threatening to other animals). Thanks for your understanding! You won't want to miss this experience.

We return here often and were married here 34 years ago. Nice spot overlooking the ocean and her waves. Beautiful vistas and restrooms nearby.

What’s better than the ocean. A nice park and public pool. BBQ pits, tables, grass field and then the beach. Moonstones, pebbles, ocean animals. Great relaxing and fun place
