Ventana Grill has some of the best food around, great gourmet cooking, with gourmet prices, around $24 a plate. But this restaurant sits on the bluffs just North of Pismo Beach, you can see whales spouting in the distance at times, but there is no restaurant with a better view than this restaurant!

Avila Beach is 20 minutes from our location, it has lots of restaurants and coffee shops along the ocean front. There is plenty of places to walk on the beach or jump in the ocean, and it is much more manageable place to hang out if you don't want to deal with the larger crowds in Pismo.

Port San Luis is at the far end of Avila Beach, there is a light house and pier you can walk on, eat at, and see the local wildlife. There is a Seal colony that likes to hang out on a boat pier about 30 feet off of the main pier.

Shell beach is just North of Pismo Beach, you can access it via Dinosaur Park, and when tide is low you can walk the tide pools there, if you like the beach feel, without the large crowds of Pismo, this is for you. If you have young children you will love the play structure at Dinosaur Park!

The Bob Jones trail is a well-paved county-maintained bike and walking trail also known as the City to the Sea Trail. The trail starts across the street from the parking lot on Ontario Road, right off Highway 101, and ends in downtown Avila Beach. The trail is great for all levels of hiking and biking. It makes for an enjoyable, smooth and (mostly) flat ride with trail benches sprinkled throughout. Dogs are welcome on the trail but please pick up after them! The Bob Jones Trail wanders next to San Luis Obispo Creek, right behind the Avila Valley Barn fields. It passes the rear of Bellevue-Santa Fe Charter School. You can enjoy walking by the fields and depending on the time of year, you might just catch the sounds of frogs and flowing water. Hard to believe it’s so close to the beach! From the trailhead parking lot to the end of the Avila Pier is 3.0 miles.

It is a great private small fishing boat, that will take you out, land you on the fish, and explain everything to you. These guys are amazing if you want a personal, successful, professional fishing experience that is more intimate. Try this place.
