Ebb Tide Park, Pismo Beach
Ebb Tide Park is a lovely spot at the dead end of Ebb Tide Lane. Tucked behind rows of townhouses with Spanish roofs and turrets, the park is a stretch of grass, a paved clifftop path, and flower beds, beneath some fantastic monterey cypress trees. The view across the ocean all the way to Port San Luis is of deepest blue and gorgeous! At sunset people gather here to play music, do yoga, or just sit on a bench together and marvel at the beauty. Take the steps down to the beach and watch the surfers close to shore, or peruse the tide pools.
Ebb Tide Lane is in the middle of a long 2.7 mile walk you can do! You can walk atop the cliffs all the way from Spyglass Inn, on the Dolphin Bay Resort Walkway, along Shell Beach Road past Ebb Tide Lane, down Peyton Court (past a gorgeous garden with fishtail palms), to South Palisades Park, along Indio Drive, to the Shell Beach Bluffs Trail, to Smuggler's Cave! If you come in April and May you will see colorful flowers by the hundreds!
A park nearby with a playground is Spyglass Park. Another park with super cool play sculptures is Dinosaur Caves Park.

The walkway to the park! I love the Spanish roofs, cypress tree, and views of Avila headland.
Exit Highway 101 at Spyglass Dr and head toward the ocean. Turn right on Shell Beach Rd, and then left on Ebb Tide Lane. From the south, you don't see the street sign for Ebbtide Lane but you do see a green sign on your right that says "Coastal View- Ebb Tide Park." Park along Ebb Tide Lane and follow the short pathway to Ebb Tide Park.
For your GPS you can use the address 300 Ebb Tide Lane, Pismo Beach CA 93449.

Is this a nice place for a wedding ceremony? Never been there but looks like a beautiful view.

Teresa, I'm not sure it would be good for a wedding. It might be good for a very informal wedding with just the bride and groom and celebrant. But it's not really a park- it's a small lawn in front of apartment buildings. I'd recommend South Palisades Park. I saw a beautiful wedding there.
