Cambria

Up toward the northern parts in The Land of SLO CAL, nestled comfortably between Cayucos and San Simeon, sits the village of Cambria. It’s a seaside hamlet with a down-home feel that just might charm your socks off. Ride the shores on horseback, trot the hills on a Clydesdale and then end your day strolling into the sunset along Moonstone Beach.

Fancy yourself more the artsy type? Well, you’ve come to the right place. The streets of Cambria are a-buzz with creativity. Historic architecture, downtown art galleries, boutiques and antique shops lend a vibrant energy to this cute town hidden among the Monterey Pines. Sure, it may be small, but Cambria is a culinary kingpin. Gourmet eateries and a host of tasting rooms serve up farm-to-table feasts and the most luxurious wines the region has to offer.

Village charm, delicious flavors, and natural wonders. No matter what the season or reason, it’s always easy to cozy up in Cambria.
