Local Attractions

First-time visitors to Cambria are in for a treat. No matter what time of year, there is always plenty to see and do in Cambria. Prepare yourself for luxury lodging, delicious meals, boutique shopping, and wines made at local vineyards—not to mention the unforgettable ocean views. Kick back, relax, and enjoy everything this little gem on the Central Coast has to offer.

Cambria CA. is located half-way between San Francisco and Los Angeles on the Central Coast of California just four miles south of the famous historic landmark Hearst Castle. Take a tour of the historic castle. Only six miles north of Cambria, ‘La Cuesta Encantada,’ or the Enchanted Hill, is a must-see for first-time visitors to the Central Coast. The grand estate, built by media magnate William Randolph Hearst in the 1920s, features 165 rooms and more than 125 acres of sprawling gardens, walkways, terraces, and pools, most of which are available for touring.

Stroll along Moonstone Beach Boardwalk. This iconic, protected coastline offers incredible views from the perfect vantage point—a one-mile boardwalk that meanders along the cliff above the beach from Leffingwell Landing to Fiscalini Ranch. Take the stairs down to the beach itself to hunt for moonstones and feel the waves lapping at your feet.

Go back in time on the Historic Walking Tour. Cambria is home to a number of buildings with historic significance. Classic Victorian architecture can be found all over town, so even if you decide not to partake in the official self-guided tour, pay attention as you wander—many restaurants, stores, and lodging properties throughout Cambria are located in historic structures.

Whether it’s your first time visiting Cambria or your hundredth, you’re sure to find new reasons to fall in love with this coastal town. We know this to be true: if you visit once, you’ll find your way back.
