Cayucos Homes for Sale

Located on cool, colorful Estero Bay on the Central California Coast, Cayucos is a complete resort town providing relaxation away.

In 1867, Captain James Cass settled founded the town of Cayucos. Cass began developing the area with his business partner, Captain Ingals. Cass built a 900-foot pier and a warehouse to house cargo bound for San Francisco or Los Angeles. Eventually Cass returned to life on the sea and in 1875 real estate developer C.H. Phillips subdivided and sold the remaining portions of Rancho Moro y Cayucos. The original pier was swept away by a storm but has since been rebuilt. Today Cayucos offers beautiful luxury homes, fine dining as well as surf shops and wonderful shops.
