Found in California’s Central Coast, San Luis Obispo is best known for its slow pace and relaxing lifestyle. If you’re looking to start your morning with a sweet treat, try a specialty Galaxy donut and coffee from SloDoCo. Maybe you’re looking to relax on a classic California beach outing? Surf the day away or relax on the sands of Pismo Beach for year-round fun in the sun. Despite the sunny California weather, if the rain keeps you inside, try walking the halls of Hearst Castle to see how lavishly the guests of William Randolph Hearst got to live. Maybe you’re in the mood to get active? Hike up to the summit of Bishop’s Peak for rewarding views of the city. Of course, after a long day of being active, take time to stroll through the shops and dining of Downtown SLO. Looking for a great bottle of wine to pair with your weed? Voted 2016’s Best Wine Region in the West, nearby Paso Robles Wine Country has a wide variety of full-flavored and complex wines from artisanal vintners and wineries.
Though it’s not quite as known as SLO’s wine country, San Luis Obispo’s cannabis industry is also beginning to take off. Along with the entire state of California, any adult over the age of 21 is able to purchase recreational marijuana and possess up to 1 ounce in public. Similarly, medical marijuana patients over the age of 18 can purchase with a valid MMJ card. Though it might be tempting to bring that joint to the beach or on a hike, do not light up. While possession is legal, consumption in public is not legal. Therefore, smokers only use cannabis in the safety of their own homes. It is important to note that the City of San Luis Obispo maintains a local ordinance against offensive odors, enforced as a public nuisance. Additionally, driving and consuming marijuana is driving impaired and subject to penalties under California DUI laws.
