We decided last minute to make our way up to Pismo Beach California for a quick over night camping trip! First we hook up our Patriot Camper X1 to our Toyota Tacoma, and then we're on our way.
This is my backyard and glad you enjoyed your 1st beach camping. Your on the road Intro looked familiar til I read the 101 freeway sign reflecting the Cornejo Valley Area having lived worked Westlake til I retired few years ago. Thanks for sharing👍👍⬆️
@@artemisoffroad it’s a very fun place …… like you said where else can you camp on beach like that ?? I think your going to find? It’s going to be like that during the week also .. but anyhoo!!! Nice rig and setup.. be safe my friend
@artemisoffroad What privacy shelter is that in your thumbnail? I’m looking for one that doesn’t look obnoxious for when my wife comes out with me. Thanks!
I live there. It's not the beach locals go to. too windy and strong currents. if they would have gone up the coast 15 minutes they would have reached Avila Beach. It's a south facing beach so its less windy and no current so the kids can play in the water.
Local here. No, you can't drive on the beach at avila. But it is a much less windy beach so a little nicer. I have to admit, I never see the beach as crowded as your video shows but then, as I live here, it made me think how often I actually get to go down there. Not often enough!
Which part of the Pismo was it? When I was camping at North Beach campground there last year and drove to the actual beach, they were charging $5/day to enter and making sure that everyone is out by the dark. Or perhaps it's a different part of the beach? Would be really helpful if someone posts google map GPS coordinates of where exactly the camping is allowed.
So did you have to get a reservation? I was wanting to go next weekend but it’s sold out. If people are just staying without reservations I may try that too.
We got lucky and got stuck right in front of a group of camper. Gave them a good show digging the truck down to the frame. Traction boards are for sure a purchase down the road!
Thanks for the video. I reserved a camping spot for late next week and it gave me spot number 793? Are there marked spots or just where ever there is an opening? Thanks again
Hi! It’s basically a free for all on the beach. I believe the park services tries to limit the amount of people camping at once (although it still gets super crowded). Just make sure to air down if you try to go far back on the beach. The sand gets super soft (found out the hard way).
Just FYI in this communist state you can't take the carpool with a trailer and you must do 55 in the far right lane. Keep the carpool lane open for us legal non trailer vehicles...stick to the rules...thanks
