If you want to know more about this quirky little community we call El Granada, you have TWO chances this fall! You will learn about the early history of the area, the exciting arrival of the Ocean Shore Railroad and its development plans, and the changes after the railroad disappeared. The walks cover about a mile and half with views of the harbor, two early train stations, the remnants of the original curbs, and a number of early houses. 

Sunday, November 3 from 11:00AM-12:30PM.

Group will meet and commence walk at the skate ramp parking lot at the corner of Portola and Obispo Rd.)
