Estero Bay dominates this central California coastline, framed by the steep terrain of the Santa Lucia Range and the Pecho y Islay hills. This 1895 survey captures the landscape before significant development, highlighting the distinct geological features that define the shoreline, most notably the iconic Morro Rock standing at the entrance to Morro Bay. To the north, the small settlement of Cayucos sits near the mouth of Little Cayucos Creek, serving as a coastal outpost for the ranching and dairy lands of the San Geronimo and Morro y Cayucos land grants.
