Sightseeing
A walk through the downtown in SLO is a great way to explore the shopping, restaurants and watering holes that offer incredible variety and interest for everyone. A visit to the historic California mission, the creek, and time to sip coffee or a drink at one of the many establishments can fill an afternoon or evening with plenty of entertainment. Thursday night farmers market is a local favorite with farm produce, food, and street performers aplenty.
