Three things to do in Cambria, Central Coast California

There are many activities one can do in Cambria, Central Coast, California. The little town has great shops and restaurants. Cambria is close enough to San Simeon so one could visit the Hearst Castle for instance. One can also take a tour of the Piedras Blancas Lighthouse. Etcetera.

But here are three things I enjoy in Cambria:

1. Take walks:

2. Visit the elephant seals near Piedras Blancas Lighthouse

3. Stop by the Moonstone Gallery run by William Scroggins
