Pismo-Beach
is famous for two things - the beach that is one of California's longest and widest stretches of beach, and for their annual events and festivals. Located along the central coast in San Luis Obispo, Pismo Beach is home to the Clam Festival, a Custom Car Show and annual Jazz Festival. The beautiful beach is 23 miles of swimming, sunning, surfing, volleyball playing, and kite flying! There are miles of trails in town and along the coast for hiking and bike riding, and horseback riding is allowed on the fabulous Oceano Dunes and Beach. For a different and very fun way to tour the coastline, kayaks and canoes are available for rent. Just a short drive from Pismo Beach takes you to the spectacular Hearst Castle, local wineries, championship golf courses and the charming Danish town of Solvang. In town, you'll be delighted with the numerous restaurants, art galleries, antique and specialty shops and souvenir shops. A local farmer's market is held every Tuesday, June through August. Lodging in Pismo Beach is abundant and everything from an inn on a bluff overlooking the ocean, to family hotels and motels. The weather along the central coast is mild, 60s - 80s, with the warmest months being August - October, so plan a trip to Pismo Beach anytime of the year!

Pismo Beach Weather & Climate
|
|
|
|
A Mild, Mediterranean climate describes the central coast of California that lies between San Francisco and Los Angeles. The area near San Luis Obispo and Pismo Beach enjoys over 300 days of sunshine per year and very pleasant temperatures year round.
The terrain is made up of sandy beaches, gently rolling hills and sand dunes, lush foliage and vineyards. Cool ocean breezes keep temperatures from becoming too hot in the summertime. Low clouds and patchy fog are common on summer days, but it almost always burns off by midday. Conditions are very dry, and the occasional summer thunderstorm produces so little precipitation that range and forest fires often result from lightening strikes. In winter, the semi-permanent Pacific Ocean high retreats bringing rain into the area from November through March. These storms are widespread and at times heavy.
