After almost a year of pandemic closures, the re-opening of the Oceano Dunes to off-road vehicles is bringing business back to the area.
Many Grover Beach business owners said foot traffic has increased significantly since the Oceano Dunes opened back up to overnight campers and off-highway vehicles on Friday.
Grover Station Grill owner Z Zaferis said he has been able to bring employees back on this week with the uptick in business. [We have seen] a huge difference especially [Sunday], the last couple of days we noticed a significant increase in takeout and delivery services, food jets (that are) locally owned, and door dash, says Zaferis.
