Pismo Beach is the weekend haven camping mecca for Bako, the lower Central Valley - especially in the heat of summer. Every guy with his American made truck & white toy box full of quads and cool stickers is headed westbound. Dune buggies, ATV & OHV's all headed down Hwy 166, to escape the daily grind, the oil, the smog & the heat. They are headed to Oceano - or Pismo Dunes as most still call it. The pier downtown is the central hub for the tourists, locals & beach goers.
