FRIENDS OF THE FESTIVAL
The Morro Bay Bird Festival thrives due to the generous support of our business community, which includes in-kind and cash donations, as well as a generous grant from the Morro Bay Tourism Board.
MAJOR SPONSOR

Morro Bay Tourism Board
Welcome to Morro Bay
Morro Bay is a seaside getaway located right off scenic Highway 1 on the Central Coast of California. More than that, it’s a backdrop for the perfect coastal adventure. The centerpiece of this coastal haven? Morro Rock— a volcanic monolith rising from the depths of the sea. This rock has guided generations of fish captains home, their holds brimming with the freshest California catch. It peels off perfect Central Coast waves, delighting surfers and young whitewash adventurers alike. It’s a salt-rimmed beacon, the guardian of fresh oyster beds, home to seals and sea birds.
Through all that chatter, one thing is certain: if Morro Rock could talk, it would tell you to Come Get Salty in Morro Bay

SLO CAL
Discover the soulful heart of California’s Central Coast in SLO CAL—San Luis Obispo County’s spirited nickname—where uncrowded beaches, rolling vineyards, and artisan communities converge. Sunrise surf sessions flow into creek-side hikes, open-air markets, and twilight tastings beneath endless stars. Whether you crave family fun, romantic hideaways, or a rejuvenating weekend retreat immersed in the great outdoors, SLO CAL invites you to slow down, breathe deep, and make every moment your own.
