What to see and do in San Luis Obispo ?

Located just off the 101, San Luis Obispo’s busy downtown area is a great place to stay. Running along Higuera and Monterey Streets, downtown SLO is a great place to shop, eat, or just walk and people watch. Farther away from the city center, the city’s Spanish colonial charm stretches into lush hills. Peace and quiet when you want it, action when you don’t; the choice is yours.

San Luis Obispo is known far and wide for its amazing restaurants. From the finger-licking goodness of Firestone Grill to the creative burgers of Eureka!, the city has something to offer each and every palate. Here’s a local secret: The High Street Deli makes perhaps the best sandwiches in all of California, and after a certain time of day, everything on the menu costs $4.20, allowing you to eat your fill without hurting your wallet.

San Luis Obispo is home to some of the best hiking and mountain biking trails in the entire central coast. The area has a huge, and productive, agricultural sector due to its fertile soil, many of its hills are covered in forests of oak, providing a stunning green canopy on outdoor adventures.

Then, of course, there’s the Pacific Ocean. SLO is just a short distance away from the absolutely stunning Morro Bay, a peaceful beach town founded by the region’s greatest landmark, Morro Rock, which towers hundreds of feet above the water. Sandbars make it a great place to go sea kayaking, sunbathing, and swimming. Go a bit further and you’ll get to Hearst Castle, a stunning structure built by a newspaper mogul in the first half of the twentieth century. The castle includes gardens, a stunning art collection, and great examples of Spanish Revival architecture.

San Luis Obispo is also a great place for fans of microbreweries. Names like SLO Brewing Co, Firestone Walker, and Creekside are renowned throughout the state, and all started in this idyllic beach town. There’s no better way to wash down days spent on beaches, trails, and in restaurants than with a pint straight from the source.
