The Central Coast is the part of California between the two big cities, and it is slower than either. Pismo Beach, Grover Beach and Oceano share 17 miles of wide flat sand backed by dunes, with a pier in the middle. Avila Beach is a small sheltered cove that stays warmer than its neighbors. Morro Bay has the rock and a working harbor. Cayucos is a beach town of a few blocks with a wooden pier, and Cambria's Moonstone Beach has a boardwalk along the bluff with elephant seals a short drive north.
