Why You Should Vacation in Morro Bay if You’re Coming from Outside the U.S.
Famous for an ancient volcanic mound and known for many other natural wonders and features, Morro Bay is a tranquil and inviting coastal California city.

Below, the friendly staff from Ascot Suites, one of the most charming boutique hotels in Morro Bay, list some of the top reasons you should vacation in Morro Bay if you’re coming from outside the U.S.
There Are Many Uniquely Wondrous Natural Attractions
If you have an appreciation for natural wonders because of what’s common in your country or part of the world, you’ll love Morro Bay.

Many of the beaches within this area are also peppered with natural features, as is the 8,000-acre Montaña de Oro State Park.
It’s an Outdoor Lover’s Paradise
A compelling argument can be made that many of the hiking, biking, and camping sites found within the Morro Bay area rival what’s found in some other parts of the world.

• Hiking and mountain biking

Morro Bay State Park also has a campground by the marina. Additionally, the park operates an 18-hole golf course. The outdoor possibilities in Morro Bay are nearly limitless.
