You're still allowed to have an open container on the beach in Oceano but not right next door in Pismo. Not sure about Avila now.

in baja, often, you can't walk in the downtown with a beer can or bottle but you can have a cup like vaso loco unless there is an event then you can
bottles or cans. Typically bottles are not to go from bars nor should bring bottles to a bar since the bottle can break, but bottles or cans can be on
the beach since its sand. Each city is unique.

And on the seventh day God gave us New Orleans where open containers 24/7 are almost mandatory.

Not glass bottles. Bad for the drunks in the gutters.

I'll go with the showing respect angle. A few yrs. back
there were no drinking signs posted on the San Felipe Malecon, don't know if they are still there. Never saw any
heavy handed enforcement. I enjoy a colorful warm Sat.
nite on the SF Malecon, hope that never goes away

I was on a Mexican beach several years ago and an officer with a badge and gun (good people to pay attention to) say it was technically illegal to
have an open container on the beach and since it was Sunday, with lots of families about, he liked to enforce the law on that day. He did, however,
give us the option to pour it into another container and continue drinking as long as it wasn't from the beer bottle and didn't 'look' like we were
drinking. I think it just follows the "be respectful" theme. Keep a supply of red solo cups handy, they're available everywhere.

Bingo. It also depends who you are and if your intoxicated. Just down the beach or if your staying at a beachfront location prob not going to get
bothered.
As for the Main beach best to be discreet. 
PS Mannings, love the new avatar. Have fun down there. Most of those beach communities south of SF are private property, cold ones are mandatory.

Nothing to worry about at all.

Thank you for reporting in on your vacation... I hope to keep hearing about it (since I am up here working)! Have fun!! Oh, and doing 'nothing' is one
of the best activities south of San Felipe!
