Scenic hiking trail in the Montana De Oro State Park.

Gorgeous views- hills behind, cliffs ahead, and a short level path down to the beach. Incredible tide pools with lots of creatures to be found. Huge kelp and lots of sandstone with urchin pits in it. Lots of fun for kids too. Careful on the rocks!

We visited the elephant seal rookery of Piedras Blancas in mid-April. We learned while we were there that the large males (5000 pounds) with the extended noses (proboscis ) would not be on the beach at this time of the year. The elephant seals on the beach would be females and adolescents using the beach as a place to molt. This was a great experience. We visited the boardwalk during the evening and then returned to the same area in the morning. We witnessed more activity in the morning session. The boardwalks extend both north and south of the parking lot. There were seals in the water, seals on the beach, seals sleeping, seals climbing over each other, and seals sparring with each other. This was just a great experience, especially for a person from the Midwest. The area has great signage on the road so a person can easily find the rookery, located a few miles north of San Simeon. Brochures and informational bulletin boards provides you with education about these sea mammals. No fee associated with parking or accessing the viewing area.

This is a 1.7mile walk or bike ride to Avila Beach. Very senic, relaxing and easy to do, wonderful! It also takes you around the golf course, over a river via bridge.

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.

We are a small family run tour company that offers Powerboat excursions on the pristine waters of San Luis Obispo Bay, the hidden gem of the Central Coast. Hop aboard any of our tours and you will experience an abundance of wildlife viewing opportunities and see for yourself why locals and visitors alike consider our trips their favorite way to share the beauty of this bay with friends and family. Our boat is very comfortable and with only 6 passengers on each tour you are guaranteed a personalized experience and an unobstructed view when we stop to see the sights and animals. I have been leading adventure tours for over 35 years and will be your personal guide on every. Our boat is one of the best whale watching platforms on the west coast. She is an amazing 28 ft Power catamaran that is incredibly stable and quite fast which means you get more quality time with the whales than the traditional slower boats.

Closed for covid. We love this place because there are not as many people as the Montana de Oro bluffs. We've seen otters, whales, falcon, kestrel, numerous sea birds. It can be windy. It can be cold, It can be hot. Always beautiful.
