Major Attractions

Once you book one of Travelocity's Half Moon Bay packages, you can look forward to hikes along the Coastside Trail and afternoons lounging on the wide, sandy expanse that makes up the famous Half Moon Bay State Beach. Spot the whales as they migrate from your vantage point at Gray Whale Cove State Beach before wandering the Pillar Point Harbor. You can rent a paddle boat to explore the waters, or you can just leave the navigation to others by joining a boat tour. Don't forget to indulge at one of the harbor's fantastic seafood restaurants.

Recurring Festivals and Events

Fall brings the annual Half Moon Bay Art & Pumpkin Festival. For more than 40 years, the event has drawn in people to enjoy the work of local artists and experience the local wine, ales, food, and music—and pumpkins, of course. If you're enjoying your Half Moon Bay vacation package in early summer, you'll be treated to the colorful Portuguese-heritage dances and parade that mark Chamarita (Holy Ghost Festival celebrating the end of a famine and Queen Isabella) and the two-day La Honda Faire and Music Festival held in the redwoods every June.
