SHELL BEACH

ll I can say is how gorgeous is this ocean? It's like nothing I've ever seen before. On this trip I seriously have been going crazy with all the photoshoots I wish to have because everywhere you look provides an opportunity!

We decided to ditch Pismo beach all together as it was ridiculously crowded, and sometimes the quieter places tend to make the best relaxation spots. Being Memorial weekend when we were up here, we lucked out on finding this little gem. It's tucked away in a neighborhood, so unless you drove around to look at beach homes you'd miss it all together. Shell beach is a town that is right next to Pismo so it's smaller, and not the go to for tourists (score). It's location is apart of Five Cities, and in that cluster of the San Luis Obispo county!

One thing I love about the central coast is how easy it is to get around. I'm so use to LA traffic and crowds that it blows my mind that the population of shell beach is only 7,655! Crazy right? So we had the luxury of finding parking during the day, and back at night to watch the sunset - something that could never be possible in San Diego!

Stay tuned as I have yet to cover San Luis Obispo, and the gorgeous hotel we stayed in! Until then, scroll below for some beautiful blue water envy!
