See if you can arrange to arrive in SLO a little early; the weekly farmer's market and street fair on the evening of Thursday the 14th is worth checking out.
Afternoon / evening hikes up San Luis Mountain or Bishop's Peak are fun and can produce great sunset shots in all directions. Access SLM from Laguna Lake Park http://goo.gl/maps/frLyz or from the north, parking on Luneta, Serrano or Tassajara roads, or from the east, using the parking lot at the end of Marsh St.
Bishop's peak is a straightforward hike from Foothill Blvd. http://goo.gl/maps/DBz8A

Sad to see the rampant development that has occurred since I left the area ~12 years ago. Pirate's Cove used to be a clothing optional beach, but is now just another high end cliff side subdivision. Shell Beach, Pismo Beach, etc. are now little more than Northern LA. If you want to get away, head north to Morro Bay or Cayucos, where you can still stroll the beach in relative isolation.
