oceano's new directional sign!
February 25, 2022
We're thrilled to present Oceano's new Directional Sign!
Located on Pier Avenue on the back wall of Old Juan's Cantina, meant to encourage beach go-ers leaving the beach to turn RIGHT onto Highway 1 to visit our Downtown Business District!
Many visitors are unaware of all of the goodies that Oceano has to offer such as: Groceries, Gas, Shops, Art, Museum, Restaurants, Theater and other great businesses!
We commissioned local artists, South Paw Sign Company of Oceano to create a sign that captured the unique vibrancy of our Downtown area and are so happy with the outcome!
Here at VACO we're dedicated to working with our community businesses and residents to celebrate & maintain the unique character of our historic seaside town & all of the wonderful qualities that make Oceano such a great place to live & work!
Sending a special thank you to the Verdin Family at Old Juan's, Sean & his team at South Paw Sign Company, & Visit Oceano-Nipomo for funding the project!

Revitalization plan
In 2013 the SLO County Planning Department did extensive work with Oceano community members and developed the Revitalization Plan. This Plan took an objective look at the needs and desires for our community. VACO's main focus will be implementing these new and exciting projects and beautification efforts that will move us towards a more pedestrian focused downtown area along Hwy 1. This work has gone unfinished over the past 8 years, and, with your input, we aim to jump start the process once again!
The full Plan can be found here!
