Rates shown are nightly rates before taxes and do not necessarily reflect all Pismo Beach, CA discounts available. The chart reflects the cheapest Pismo Beach hotel for each day and each star rating category.

Before you hit the mile-long white sand beach of Pismo, a visit to the Welcome Center will help you to organize your stay so you can get the most out of your visit. The center is next to the Prime Outlets of Pismo Beach, so after you get the lowdown on where to go from the experts, you can pick up a new bathing suit or trendy shades at the outlet mall. The mall is conveniently located right off Highway 101 and 4th St., which is only blocks away from the Pismo State Beach Golf Course, the Amtrak Station at Grover Beach, and the Pismo Lake Ecological Reserve.

Between daybreak and sunset, you can step out of your hotel and into adventure. From horseback riding and a grand exploration at the Guadalupe-Nipomo Dunes Wildlife Refuge to wine tasting at one of the many local vineyards, your trip to Pismo will be more than satisfying.

Pismo Beach, CA Has Weather for Goldilocks: “Just Right!”

With only 17 inches of rain annually and no snow, Pismo promises a sunny day 282 days a year. For the year-round average of 70o with a January low of 42o, a sweater should be enough most of the time and too much the rest of the time! If you're looking for a great Instagram or Snapchat picture, Pismo Beach can provide the perfect backdrop at any time. For more serious photographers, the gracious weather will help you make the most of your stay. You can find perfect ocean shots off the Pismo Pier (hold on to your hat; it's a bit windy out there), or on the Pismo Creek Trail. Birdwatchers will love the bird life on the Pismo Creek Trail, which begins at Addie and terminates at the ocean.

Pismo Beach gives you easy access to all the outdoor activities that the perfect climate typically allows year-round. You could begin your day with a kayaking trip after morning coffee, go hiking in the Montana de Oro State Park (a short drive away), visit the Monarch Butterfly Grove, one of the largest areas for wintering Monarch butterflies in the U.S., and end the day on a quiet fishing trip. Or maybe you'll be in the water all day catching the surf on your board and soaking in the sweet California sunshine!

Restaurants and shops in the center of town are family owned small businesses, not national chains. Restaurant and shop staff are friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed watching the surfers from the pier. Beaches are deep and wide with fine sand.
