Things to do and see
Downtown Morro Bay can easily be explored on foot. A stroll down the Embarcadero is a must to experience the working port, and to greet the cute otters and sea lions. Anglers often embark on deep sea fishing expeditions from the north end of the Embarcadero. Off the beaten path is the Morro Bay National Estuary, where fresh and salt water mix together. Bring your binoculars for a glimpse of the great blue herons, snowy egrets and barking sea lions, who live along the sand dunes. The Heron and Cormorant Rookery is another prominent bird watching spot.
Often referred to as the 'Crown Jewel of California's Central Coast', the Morro Rock is truly an awe-inspiring geologic wonder on the beach that lets visitors witness the ever-changing moods of the ocean. Photographers and bird watchers enjoy gazing at the gorgeous Peregrine falcons that build their nests here. Families with kids could take the Sub Sea Tour where Morro Bay's marine life comes into view through glass windows in the boat's hull.
