Skydive Pismo Beach Today!

Skydiving in Pismo Beach... Just Plain Awesome
Know what's awesome? One word: Skydiving.

Know what's even more awesome? Skydiving in Pismo Beach. There is nothing like hurtling toward Earth at 120 miles an hour in absolute free fall. As the whirling wind creates a cushion, one feels as though they are floating in the clouds. It's the once-in-a-lifetime feeling of flying that you never get to experience from the seat of an airplane.

New to Pismo Beach, this is a must for any daredevil to experience. And really, you couldn't ask for a better place to dive.

Skydive Pismo Beach is a tandem skydiving school, which mean every novice jumper is strapped to a certified expert. Then again, if you want a real thrill, you can take extra lessons and jump solo.

For more details, visit SkyDivePismoBeach.com!

And after you recover from your "fall," be sure to stay at Valentina Inn & Villas, located less than 2 blocks from the beach. Our breathtaking views are sure to take your breath away (though maybe not as much as that skydive).

San Luis Obispo "Bike Happening" on September 1

How does one Bike it SLO? Must they bike at a relaxed easy pace to enjoy their surroundings? Perhaps. But for a group of dedicated bike enthusiasts and professionals, to Bike it SLO means a lot more than that. For this "circus" of cyclists, if you will, bicycling is a "happening."

And they encourage you to join them or watch them on September 1 as they gather together for their monthly minutes of fame.

SLO Bike Happening . . . As crazy and fun as it looks.
Per their website (http://bikehappening.org/), a few cyclers have been getting together the first Thursday of the month since June of 2000 for a fun bike ride through downtown San Luis Obispo. As others saw how much fun they were having they started joining the group and the little bike ride has grown from a few dozen friends into a few hundred friends. Oh the magic of cycling.

Every month has a theme. September 2011's theme is Team Spirit. Choose a team to represent. It can be anything (Team Jacob, Team America, ANYTHING), and bike it out! Bring your team together and show some team spirit!

This group does not have a permit for the ride because they rely on their right to peacefully assemble and when they ride they become traffic and abide by the laws of traffic. If you chose to join them for a ride they ask that you follow three simple rules: Have fun, respect our community, and obey all traffic laws.

Whether you're dusting off your old cruiser or bringing out your pricey pride and joy, the purpose to get people on their bikes and to have fun. If you’d like to join us on our next social on wheels bring your bike to the Mission Plaza the first Thursday of the month at 9:30PM (September 1, 2011 is the next ride).

They start at the Mission in San Luis Obispo and exit towards Monterey Ave/Nipomo St. They go straight to Nipomo, left on Nipomo and then left on Marsh. They ride up Marsh St all the way past Santa Rosa Street and into the parking lot between Marsh and Higuera Streets. There they swarm! That lets them collect everyone and then head back out into Higuera Street. At the corner of Higuera St and Santa Rosa St they wait until everyone arrives at the stop light. Then at the next green light they all ride down Higuera St together!

Check it out this Thursday!

The 805 Lifestyle . . . It's All About How Much You Chill

The Unofficial Shirt for
Pismo Beach Vacationers & Valentina Guests

You work almost the whole year (or maybe you don't). But now is your chance to take some time off and pass some rejuvenating time at the beach. What better place than Pismo Beach, CA?

California claims to be the home of classic, untainted beaches with small town charm. This image thankfully still exists in none other Pismo Beach. After all, why else would Bugs Bunny want to travel all the way there?

There are so many things to do in Pismo, but at the same time, relaxation is key, and Pismo is the easiest place to chill. Taking a nap on the beach as you soak in the sun, going out for a stroll on the pier, shopping or window shopping in Downtown Pismo, wine tasting in the Edna Valley . . . our town is the perfect place to chillax.

Whether you're taking the family along, spending time with friends, or simply want to take that romantic getaway with that special person in your life, Pismo Beach is the ideal destination. And while you're in Pismo, be sure to stay at Valentina Inn & Villas centrally located less than 2 blocks from the beach. Our villas accommodate 4-8 comfortably and are filled with countless amenities including gourmet kitchens, living rooms/dining areas, washer/dryers, and more.

Take your last opportunity to chillax before the summer ends at Valentina Inn & Villas.
