Artichoke

The Captain's Inn is located in the heart of artichoke country, we have fields within blocks of the inn, and only 2 miles from the "Artichoke Capitol of the World", Castroville, CA. The innkeeper is very proud of this artichoke, grown in the Inn's backyard garden. Guests can pick up a free artichoke dining guide at the Inn. The artichoke guide takes you to local restaurants for delights like french fried artichokes, artichoke soup, fire roasted artichokes, artichoke pizza, stuffed artichokes, and many more recipes. Also, favorite places to get fresh chokes to take home with you.

Green Days by Bike

Many of our guests enjoy a leisure ride on our mountain bikes for rent. This is a green way to explore our village and the surrounding area. This biking couple (celebrating her birthday) visited restaurants, artichoke farms, the beach, saw sea otters, checked out the harbor, purchased fresh strawberries, and tried deep fried artichoke hearts (famous in this region).You can come to stay then walk or bike; avoiding all the traffic, congestion and stress that comes with getting in your car.
