Back Bay Cafe

This is my favorite breakfast place. It's in Los Osos, about 8 miles from the house, situated on the bay. It's essentially a coffee house with wonderful food at a reasonable price.
Frankie and Lola's is only open for breakfast and lunch. Their breakfast is really interesting and tasty!

Taco Temple is my favorite casual restaurant in Morro Bay. They do a great job with fish but have other entrees as well. Be careful how you order, they give you a lot of food. One fish taco is sufficient for most people. Their crab cake taco is also really good.

There are a few things to do down by the rock: Check out the otters on the bay side of the rock. During high surf it's fun to walk out the end of the road and watch the crashing waves.

Hearst Castle is a huge draw here. It's probably a good idea to make a reservation. Look for the herd of zebras in the hills between San Simeon and the entrance to the castle.

The Elephant Seals are simply disgusting, interesting and fun! I would suggest a trip up highway 1 taking in the zebras by Hearst Castle, Elephant Seals and going a bit further to Ragged Point in Big Sur for lunch and views.

This is the entry point of the Big Sur area. I think it's the most beautiful part of Big Sur due to the steepness of the ajoining mountains/hills. They've got a really lovely restaurant and a fabulous walk with views of the ocean and hills. Get your gas back here in Morro Bay!

Kayaking the bay is fantastic! There's tons of birds out there and a visit to the sand spit is a must.
