If you're in SLO or driving north to south or vice versa, this place is an excellent stop for a coffee break. Very cute and cozy too!

Seals, anemones, tide pools, starfish...one of the most beautiful beaches I have been to in Southern California...wade into the water near the rocks and wade through sea grass to get a better look.
Take time to wander around the property and chill by the Neptune pool. Don't miss weaving through the gardens surrounding the cottages and leave time to truly appreciate the roman pool.
The pizzas are a must. The veggie sides can make up a meal on their own. Super kind staff... Ask them for wine recommendations. And don't forget to buy granola for the road !
Amazing place. To hike the entire park, set aside three hours. Light climbing, and beautiful views.
The hike up the mountain - not the one to the water fall- is amazing through the red wood trees. Challenging and rewarding.
This is the most beautiful beach I've been to in the U.S. Worth the short hike: 10 min down 20 up mostly stairs. No bathroom by the beach but there are portapottys in the parking lot. Be warned.
