California's Central Coast towns make for wonderful getaways, whether you choose Monterey Bay, the Santa Ynez Valley, or San Luis Obispo County.
Monterey is the perfect place to go whale watching. You may also see dolphins, other marine life, and sea birds. The Monterey Bay aquarium is also topnotch.
Visit for a European-feel village with excellent shopping, art, and dining, and for the stunning crescent-shaped white sand beach.
Located in the Santa Ynez Valley, Solvang is famous for its Danish architecture. Enjoy wine tasting, shopping, and Danish bakeries!
San Luis Obispo is known for its lively downtown, with a historic mission and many boutique shops and museums. It is also just 15 minutes from beaches along the coast.
