An industrial area/neighborhood where you can find winery tasting rooms, breweries, distilleries and a cider house. (Look below for some of the specific places we love). It's a great place to spend the day and create your own personal wine tour on foot.

Explore The Coast
Spend the day by the ocean. The drive over the Santa Lucia mountains to the coast is beautiful.
You can watch giant elephant seals hangout on the beach (from the safety of a boardwalk). Okay, that doesn't sound like much--but they are massive and loud and I swear it is cool to see. It is a popular tourist destination.

Absolutely beautiful drive to a beautiful place. Recommend making a day of it with Cambria, Heart Castle, and ending the day here (or just stop here as you continue up the coast into Big Sir). In the little town, there is Ragged Point Restaurant, a gift shop, a place for ice cream, and a gas station. Also, the Ragged Point Cliffside Trail is accessible from here.
