Geocache Description:


A magnetic park-and-grab placed to mark the parking and trail heads for the cave, the bluffs and the nearby Pirate's Cove beach

Cave Landing

This half-mile round trip hike visits a small rock bridge at the end of a dramatic headland east of Avila Beach. The hike down Cave Landing to the natural tunnel sometimes called Pirate’s Cave provides outstanding coastal views over the beach cities of San Luis Obispo County. This is a short, easy, and enjoyable trek with 100 feet of elevation change – a perfect excursion for anyone staying in Avila.

Pirate's Cove

Pirate's Cove in Avila Beach was once a secret spot where cargo was diverted from Harford Pier in Port San Luis by smugglers bringing large quantities of liquor ashore from cargo ships. Like the naturist activity at the beach today, locals knew what was going on but did not mind it. In fact, townsfolk protected the smugglers and even assisted in efforts.
