Located approximately 35 mi (56 km) north of San
Luis Obispo, Cambria is an unincorporated coastal community primarily developed
by vacation homes. Cambria is characterized by year-round, Mediterranean-type
weather and engaging natural surroundings. Many kayaking and surfing opportunities,
as well as guided tours and instructional classes, are easily accessible from
the village as it borders the Pacific Ocean. The area's natural marine inhabitants,
primarily elephant seals, are available for viewing by the non-profit organization
Friends
of the Elephant Seal. Cambria's residents are an eclectic mixture of retirees,
ranchers, artists, writers, musicians and families who are proud of their heritage
and place on the map. The result is that the village boasts numerous artist-run
and commercial galleries
featuring ever-changing showcases of work produced by local artists. Unique sculptures
and specialty art attractions are also scattered throughout the village including
Nit
Wit Ridge, a castle made of junk created by Arthur Harold Beal.
