Montana de Oro State Park

Montana de Oro State Park features over 8,000 acres of rugged cliffs, secluded sandy beaches, coastal plains, streams, canyons and hills. Naturalists and backpackers enjoy the solitude and freedom found along the park's trails. There are also mountain biking and equestrian trails. The best-known beach is Spooner's Cove, across from the campground. The name "Mountain of Gold" comes from the golden wildflowers that bloom in spring. Wildlife in the park includes black tailed deer and the black oystercatcher. The park has primitive and equestrian campsites.

The Park is a watchable wildlife area and is six miles southwest of Morro Bay and seven miles south of Los Osos on Pecho Road.
