TRAVEL Wine & Waves Destination A PISMO BEACH, CALIFORNIA, IS WHERE THE VINEYARDS MEET THE SEA by Georgina Stassi B Dolphin Bay offers a resort experience in Pismo Beach, CA. etween Santa Barbara and Napa Valley, another California wine region lies nestled in San Luis Obispo County waiting to be explored. It is an unadulterated new frontier in California's burgeoning wine industry, and its gateway is the classic California coastal town of Pismo Beach. From the beginning, Pismo Beach was a place to escape the heat of the Central Valley, a place for fishing and clamming, surfing and beach bonfires. For decades, quaint beachfront motels and campsites were the only places to stay in Pismo Beach until Dolphin Bay Resort & Spa and other luxury resort developers began to set the bar higher.
