We happen to think that the San Mateo Coastal area is one of the greatest places to live. Now, you may think that we’re slightly partial due to our years of living and working in this beautiful part of the country, but our bias is also founded on the many unique things that are offered in each city along the coast.
One of these cities is the charming community of Half Moon Bay. Its small coastal town atmosphere offers tranquility, yet at the same time, an abundance of things to do. Here are a few of our favorite options.
Wine Tasting- One of the richest parts of Northern California’s heritage is, of course, the wine. Enjoying these wonderful flavors paired with the most decadent cheeses is a must for any visit to Half Moon Bay. La Nebbia Winery is one of our local offerings nestled amidst sprawling gardens and is ideal for wine tastings, events or dinner parties. If you don’t have an entire day to spend sipping wines, check out the popular stop Half Moon Bay Wine & Cheese. This store sells the finest in wine and cheese and hosts events throughout the week.
Horseback Riding- Take in the stunning views along the coast or in the rich forests of Half Moon Bay on horseback! Open all year round, seven days a week is the Sea Horse Ranch & Friendly Acres Horses & Rentals which takes you along seven miles of breathtaking scenery.
Bird Watching- You may not think bird watching is your type of activity, but the San Mateo Coast is home to many unique birds that won’t see anywhere else. The Pescadero Marsh bird refuge is a unique place where you can view over 200 species of birds.
Farm Visits- If organic food is a passion of yours, you’ll enjoy the various options of stopping by our local farms that sell the freshest vegetables, fruits and herbs. Make a day of it by opting to pick your own fruit at Phipps Country Store and Farm. There are an abundance of options along the coast to visit our local growers who provide a rich blend of community and outstanding food.
As you can see, there are a number of reasons to visit Half Moon Bay! Better yet, if you’ve always dreamed of living in such a unique town; let us know! We’re happy to answer any questions you may have about the San Mateo Real Estate market!
