Cambria is a very peaceful town with friendly people all around. The weather is always cool and never too hot. Also, the beaches and trails here are wonderful to explore. There are no big commercial stores or restaurants here, but the food is good everywhere. The only downside to this calm and peaceful town is that there isn't much to do and you have to drive to nearby cities to do more fun activities.
