The small town provides an intimate environment.

You don’t have to worry about beating the crowds or finding a parking spot when you visit Cambria.  With a population just over 6,000, the small town hidden along California’s Central Coast is never too busy, especially in the winter months “off season”.   The friendly, intimate environment is perfect for slowing down and really enjoying each others company without distractions of long lines and busy crowds.

 


The view is simply unbeatable.

Moonstone Beach 19Tucked along California’s Central Coast, the water is within walking distance of many shops and hotels, as well as Cambria’s downtown area.  Moonstone Beach has a lovely walking patch where you can observe the local wildlife including the sea otters and sea lions who enjoy hanging out in the rocky outlets.  The small beaches along the path are great for surfing or checking out the tide pools.  The Fiscalini Ranch Preserve offers 436 acres of hiking and biking trails with spectacular views of the coast.  The beaches and paths are perfect for enjoying a picnic or taking in a spectacular sunset together.

 

The weather is mild, no matter the season.

Cambria offers a mild climate year round with sunny and comfortable days ideal for enjoying all the outdoor activities the area offers.  The temperature does drop in the evening, perfect for bundling up with the one you love to go stargazing or enjoying a warm and cozy fire while listening to the crashing ocean waves.

Hearst Castle near Cambria and San SimeonThere are great local attractions just outside of Cambria that are ideal for day trips in the area.  Hearst Castle is a must see when you visit.  The famous estate sits on a 250,000 acre ranch is now a museum open to the public, and is located just six miles north of Cambria in San Simeon.

Just south of Cambria is the charming town of Harmony.  The very small town boasts a population of 16.  There is great wine tasting at Harmony Cellars and a quaint wedding chapel…as you can imagine, people love being married in Harmony.  But the real fun in Harmony is being mesmerized by the Harmony Glass blowers as they create their fiery masterpieces.  You might even be able to buy the very same piece you watch them create.
