Located halfway between San Francisco and Los Angeles, San Luis Obispo is situated in the heart of California's Central Coast where you can spend your day exploring miles of white, sandy beaches, browsing through quaint stores and museums, wine tasting or hiking or bicycling in and around the rolling hills. From the emerald green vineyards to the brilliant blue ocean, you’ll discover a unique mix of food, wine, recreation, art and culture—not to mention the jaw-dropping opulence of Hearst Castle—all set amidst warm, friendly surroundings.
