Cayucos by-the-Sea is located on California’s scenic Central Coast, halfway between Los Angeles and San Francisco. Cayucos sits quietly between the Pacific Ocean and the rolling hillsides of open ranch land and is what some people call "the last of the California beach towns." It’s sleepy strip of kitschy shops and bars is a throwback to ’70s California, and the Cass House Inn, built in the 1800s, is still the town’s showpiece. The original home of Captain James Cass, an Englishman who stumbled upon the area while hauling lumber from San Francisco.

Cayucos is a California original. Born during the days of Spanish land grants, Cayucos grew up with sailing ships and steamers, rum runners and revenuers. Gamblers and seafarers met in the Old Cayucos Tavern, and adventurers and romantics of all kinds still meet there today.
