With oceanside cities like Avila Beach, Pismo Beach, and Shell Beach, so much of what you encounter is breathtaking. Come to relax, come to hike, bike, surf, paddle board or fish, just come even if it’s to simply lay on the beach and watch dogs catching frisbees…or to dip your toes in the surf and play in the tidepools.
Oceanside choices for dining and fine resorts are in abundance in SLO. Pismo, Avila and Shell Beach are phenomenally beautiful beach towns. Scenic bays, beautiful beaches, and fun boardwalks. SLO has it all.
