Is it Shell Beach or is it Pismo Beach, California ?? Pismo Beach is located in the Five Cities Metropolitan Area.  Shell Beach is a populated place "within" the city limits of Pismo Beach.  Pismo Beach is located south of San Luis Obispo and North of Arroyo Grande, California.  As of the census of 2000, there were 8,551 people.  Pismo Beach has a total area of 13.4 square miles.  Pismo means "tar" in the language of the native Chumash Indians.  Through the late 1880's and into the 1920's, Pismo Beach experienced growth and ever increasing tourism.  The El Pizmo Company built the Pismo Dance Pavilion, which would today be in the city parking lot.  They also built Tent City, which was two full blocks in size.  The El Pizmo Company offered tents for rent and lots for sale.  They enticed l... 08/12/2010

Day 1 was beautiful, once we got 45 minutes north of Carlsbad and the sun came out. Good thing. I had visions of a trip along the coastline with more marine layer. We paid a quick visit to Surf, CA  (top photo) - yep that is the name - nothing but a beach and, oddly, an Amtrack stop by Vandenburg AFB. Driving through Lompoc the evidence of the horrific fires from last year were much in evidence. We stayed in Pismo Beach, which is a small, charming seacoast town about 3.5 hours north of LA. Fabulous views from our room, as you can see. Lots of seagulls, including the one who hung out below our balcony clearly waiting for handouts. Today we head up Route 1 to Big Sur, which has incredible views. Should be fun. 07/29/2010

Better get here early...the fun starts at 1 PM and finishes with a grand fireworks display after dark. The center of the party is the Pismo Beach Pier, and parking will be difficult, so carpool if possible, come early, take the bus...whatever you need to do not to miss the show.  There will be live music, military bands, clowns, and food. followed by the      traditional, fantastic fireworks show. This year the weather gods should cooperate with NO FOG! (This has not always been the case, as I can attest from personal experience). If you're going to stay for the show, plan to have folding chairs, a blanket or two, and even a jacket (it gets cold at the beach after dark). You might even want to stake out your spot on the beach early in the day...it's that popular! More information: 773-4... 07/03/2010

Remember when people were saying:  "Pismo Beach home prices will never fall?" Now they're saying that interest rates will "never go up."  Interest rates-- as with home prices-- are cyclical.  And, with the growing national debt, the Fed will be forced to raise the current rates that, in my opinion, are artificially too low.     Whether its your first home, second home, or rental property, a long term real estate purchase is still one of the best investments you can make these days.  Seize the opportunity with today's low rates before they are raised in the near future.    To view current mortage rates, click the rates link to my website at slohomes4sale.com  or, Click to Search All Available Homes in San Luis Obispo County!  Paul Pickering Broker Associate, Bay Osos Brokers CA DRE Licen... 07/02/2010
