Avila Beach, California is full of history, having been named after Miguel Ávila, the town was established in the late half of the 19th century. Avila served as the main shipping port for San Luis Obispo, and still functions as a working commercial fishing pier. Tourism is, however, the main attraction in this paradise. The beach is less than 0.5 miles (0.8 km) long and is sheltered in San Luis Bay. While on vacation, you may want to stay in some of the best Airbnbs or an Avila Beach cabin rental to experience the bay area or have a taste of various tourist sites offered.
