Relax and enjoy the many adventures that await you.  The Central Coast of California has a lot to offer. Whether you are a local or a traveler, the coastlines, beaches, wildlife, bird watching, lakes, hiking, surfing, kayaking, boating and whale watching will be sure to be an unforgettable experience. 

Whale watching can be an unforgettable experience when shared your family and friends. In Santa Barbara, we saw hundreds of dolphins in a pod that was truly a beautiful experience that we will never forget.
 

The Santa Barbara Zoo is a wonderful place to visit.  We love to ride the train as it travels throughout the zoo giving you a close up of the lions and other animals.  If you are in the North County you can visit the Atascadero Zoo as well.
 

Come to the Monarch Butterfly preservation park and you will experience the delicious smell of eucalyptus wafting through the air.  You will also hear the waves of the sea  because the beach is just a short walk from this protected habitat of the beloved and endangered Monarch Butterfly.  Check out our photo gallery of what Pismo Beach locals call Butterfly Beach Park.
