About
So, you're seeking adventure and excitement but want to avoid the ocean. You want something adrenaline-laced, unique, and not too expensive. If this sounds like you, visit the Pacific Adventure Tour in Oceano.
This "wheels in the air" tour takes guests in Humvees on a one-hour, heart-pounding ride through the iconic Oceano Dunes SVRA (State Vehicular Recreation Area.)
Tours include a trained professional driver who will have you flying over dunes in a USMC Humvee. These "hold onto your seat" vehicles can zip up steep grades, ford water, and hug sandy slopes. Believe us when we say that most ATVs can't handle those specs!
While the Pacific Adventure Tour is full of gusto and grit, it is inclusive and ideal for families with kids, thrill-seekers, or nature enthusiasts eager to explore the enchanting dunes. With the ability to craft custom tours, Pacific Adventure is your go-to for film projects, parties, and special occasions.
Its proximity to other Central Coast attractions makes planning multiple activities easy. After your dune tour, explore the Pismo Beach Surf Shop or grab a bite to eat at Ada's Fish House or Marisol at the Cliffs to celebrate your day zipping across the dunes.
Pacific Adventure Tour offers thrilling adventures that propel you over, around, and across the beautiful Oceano's dunes!
Pacific Adventure Tour: Fun Facts & Cool Features
As mentioned, your adventure is in military-grade Humvees that outperform anything civilians drive.
With that in mind, picture zipping over the dunes toward a 22" vertical wall and climbing it precisely and efficiently. You'll also tackle dune bowls, where you'll defy gravity and hug a 40% slope.
But the excitement doesn't stop there. Your belly will do somersaults as you fly down 60-degree gradients as the sure-footed tires claw up sand and propel you powerfully downhill. For water enthusiasts, Pacific Adventure Tour Humvees power through water obstacles, showcasing their amphibious capabilities.
However, as their website promotes, tours can be adjusted for all adventure levels, from "mild to wild." Such considerations make the Pacific Adventure Tour the perfect adventure for any age or group.
Equally important is the company's goal to keep everyone safe. Each Humvee boasts a V8 6.2 Liter Diesel Engine, ensuring a powerful and dynamic ride through the Oceano Dunes SVRA. The vehicles are crafted with a bonded and riveted aircraft aluminum body, guaranteeing strength and agility on the sands. And with 4-wheel disc brakes, your Humvee driver has precise vehicle control to ensure a secure ride over the most challenging obstacles.
The Pacific Adventure Tour is the ultimate off-road experience! Whether you choose "mild" or "wild," you'll experience the heart-pounding thrill of riding in cutting-edge Humvees for a thrilling Pismo Beach adventure!
