RV rental Oceano Dunes State Vehicular Recreation Area, CA: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

No Oceano Dunes State Vehicular Recreation Area camping trip would be complete without a drive along the beach. Which parts of the beach you can access depends entirely on the type of vehicle that you're traveling in. Passenger cars are restricted to the northern section of the beach, whereas four-wheel drives and OHV's have the freedom to explore a little further south. Anyone motorhome camping with their own OHV in tow will need to head about a mile down the beach to Post 2, where OHV's are allowed to be unloaded and used. Just remember to look out for signposts while out adventuring, as private land and vulnerable habitats are off-limits for everyone. Camping near Oceano Dunes State Vehicular Recreation Area presents a fantastic opportunity for keen anglers to try their hand at a new type of fishing – surf fishing. For those who have never done this before, this is simply casting your line into the beach's calm surf. This can be done from the sand, or, if you bring your waders, from a little deeper into the water. Perch is the main species up for grabs in the area, with sandworms proving to be one of the best types of bait to lure them in. Just be aware that vehicles will still be coming along the beach, so make sure you and your rod are visible to them. Hikers camping with an RV nearby will be glad to know that there is a portion of the dunes that are prohibited to vehicles and make for a great day exploring on foot. Known as the Ocean Dunes Preserve or Nipomo Dunes, walkers can wander for more than 18 miles, with little to interrupt them apart from the odd tuft of dune grass, magenta sand verbena during spring or even a daisy or two in the summer.
