"The seals are fun!"

The food choice is limited for vegetarians on this all seafood pier, however, the seals are neat to watch. The bird poop can be a bit aggravating, but it is nature at its finest! My kids like to watch the fisherman wash their catch and ask them 1,000 questions.

"Laid back pier and good food!"

This is one of the more relaxing piers to visit.  The pier itself is very long, and along the way you'll encounter a little bait shop and outdoor fish n chips place, the Old Port Inn, which is one of the best seafood restaurants in the area, and even a place you can go to see the sea lions that hang out there!  In the same vicinity is Fat Cats, a local favorite restaurant for breakfast on the patio.... just be careful about going in bee season... they're everywhere!!!

"Fun to visit!"

If you like sea food, this is the place to go to spend a few hours.  Port San Luis has a few great sea food restaurants, especially Old Port Inn on the pier.  If you ask, you might even be able to get a table that has a glass center to look at the ocean below you.  There are also a few fish markets, with a variety of fish and seafood options.  Some people fish off the end of the pier, so if you're up to it, bring your fishing line and tackle and do some fishing of your own.  On the beach at Port San Luis, their are bon fire pits (1st come 1st serve) that are a lot of fun to use with groups.

"Our family loves it!"

We love to visit Port San Luis and eat at Fat Cats!  Our son loves checking out the seals, little fish shop on the pier and going into the Deep Sea Fishing business to see what they have caught recently!  There isn't much to actually "do" there, but it is a great site and place to get out and stretch your legs!

"Fun with the Family"

This is a bustling fishing pier and commercial marina. Don’t miss the chance to stroll down Harford Pier to find the free marine touch tank and look into a fish-processing plant. You’ll be amazed how fast sea creatures are transformed into seafood. Tons of salmon, crab, albacore, halibut, cod, shark, and swordfish are brought in here every year by approximately seventy commercial fishing vessels.
