FLOAT ON<br />

There are no shortages of places to paddle in <strong>SLO</strong> <strong>CAL</strong>. Rent a kayak or bring<br />

your own to Morro Bay, and set out for a trip around the marina and beyond.<br />

Newbies will appreciate the calm year-round conditions, thanks to the fourmile<br />

sandspit that protects Morro Bay’s waters. Experienced kayakers will<br />

enjoy seeing wildlife like otters, seals and a variety of seabirds, sometimes<br />

just feet away. Of course, a good paddle must be followed by a taste of the<br />

sea; walk the embarcadero and pick up some of the best fish and chips on the<br />

West Coast, caught within a few hours of its arrival on your plate. Pair the<br />

richness of this local delicacy with a vibrant <strong>SLO</strong> <strong>CAL</strong> sparkling wine for a<br />

meal to remember.<br />

SET SAIL<br />

Catch the wind via many beaches<br />

in <strong>SLO</strong> <strong>CAL</strong>, including the town<br />

of Cayucos , which has long been a<br />

favorite spot for kiteboarders. Sign up<br />

for a lesson or bring your own gear<br />

to the beach and let your sail carry<br />

you on the breeze. When the wind<br />

dies down, towel off and walk into<br />

downtown Cayucos, where fish tacos<br />

and fresh, house-made salsas lure both<br />

locals and visitors. A bright saison<br />

beer, made with locally grown hops,<br />

makes for a refreshing pairing as you<br />

settle into an afternoon or evening of<br />

beachside relaxation.<br />
