California coast
California coast up Highway 1 from Paso Robles is beautiful, cool steady
breeze, mind blowing roadside views. Rv'ers the days of free parking overnight
on the beach or roadside boondocking are over. The law will harass you to no end.
I actually had one ranger follow me 20+ miles
chased me off the roadside
beach front property I was on, followed me into a state park where I refused to
pay $20 just to park, leave, do a U-turn go back through "his" small
town, U-turn again and drive 15 miles up the coast - only when I left his jurisdiction
did he turn back. Visited Ano Neuvo Park and after a 3 mile hike through the woods
we got within 50 feet of a pack of 40 or more enormous 3,000-pound Elephant Seals,
fighting, roaring, sunning, playing and wriggling up and down the beach to the
sandy dunes.

 California's coastal coves are full of sea birds, one of a kind rock formations, hidden jungles for playing coup, beautiful cliffs, and of course the Ano Neuvo State Park Elephant seals sunning themselves on the beach.
California offers such diverse flora and fauna that a vacation to the west coast is nothing but memorable. The pacific ocean is full of life and there is no better way to see its beauty from one end of California to the other than the Pacific Coast Highway (SR 1). San Francisco's China Town is definitely a must see with its grocery stores, shopping, and people from all walks of life. Hotels and restaurants in San Francisco are well priced and generally of high quality.
Vacation the California coast and San Francisco.
