Where is a good place in California to go for the weekend by the beach?|152914

Its for My boyfriends birthday. We have been to San francisco, San Diego, and Santa Barbara. Im looking for a new spot. All suggestions would be helpful

Catalina Island is fun though hotels and campgrounds get booked up fast so its best to plan ahead. Taking the boat out of Long Beach is the best way. There are plenty of adventures to be had over there if you have the budget. Also if you drive the 1 through Big Sur starting off in quaint San Luis Obispo and end up in Carmel or Monterey. You can see miles of untouched coast and go down and explore good beaches. Morro bay is awesome and make sure to stop by the Taco temple for a bite.

The San Luis Obispo area would be fun. Pismo and Avila Beach are within that area. You could rent ATVs in Pismo and ride the sand dunes. These rent by the day, half day, or hour and they are a blast. There are many hotels located right on the beach in Pismo.

In Avila Beach there_s a great resort called Sycamore Mineral Springs. Each room has its own private hot tub. Some have fresh water but most have natural mineral springs water. You can have a massage in the spa and they also have a wonderful restaurant. Guests can attend Yoga and other classes for free. For more info go to:
