Pismo Beach is located along 23 miles of clean, pristine beach, a picture-perfect backdrop of rolling hills, a perfect climate and a rich history. This convenient location is off Highway 101 between San Francisco and Los Angeles. It’s amazing that Pismo Beach remains as quiet and quaint as it is.
So much to do and explore...
Treat yourself to endless hours of outdoor activities, including surfing, kitesurfing, sea kayaking, surf fishing, hiking, bicycling, rock climbing, hang gliding, horseback riding and golf. Ride your ATV on the famous Oceano Dunes, or go soak at the Avila hot mineral springs. Wander in the coastal valleys of our little Napa, and taste some of the finest vintages of wines and champagnes in the United States and the world. Venture up meandering Highway One (the original Pacific Coast Highway) and discover picturesque Cambria and San Simeon, Hearst Castle, and the spectacular cliffs of Big Sur.
Or just relax on the beach near the famous Pismo pier. Afterwards, you’ll enjoy shopping or browsing in the quaint businesses along old Pomeroy Street. Pismo Beach restaurants are always in competition for the title of “best clam chowder�?, but you’re the winner there. Of course, don’t forget to try our own abalone chowder and fine California cuisine at the SeaVenture restaurant.
Local festivals, shows & activities
Despite Pismo Beach’s small size, there’s always something happening. Check out our Calendar of Events to find out more about the celebrated Pismo classic car show in June, the famous Monarch butterfly migration in January and February, the spectacular July 4th fireworks on the pier, “Western Days�? in September, and, of course, the Pismo Clam Festival in October.
