Consejos sobre la ciudad
Qué meter en la valija
Beach Weather. Pack for sun and fog.
Pack sun hats and sunscreens for hot days and windbreaker or jackets and beanies for wind or fog.
Cómo moverse
Uber, Lyft or walk. Train for sightseeing
Walking is the best way to get around. Even the supermarket is walking distance and the local liquor store is another nearby option for sundry items. Uber and Lyft are good options to downtown especially if you plan to drink. Train is a great option for a day trip to Santa Barbara for shopping or San Luis Obispo to see the coastline with spectacular views (which are unavailable by car. )
