There is indeed a trail its called the California Coastal Trail. I have been hiking this for my training hikes and considering a thru as well - something that could be done in the 'off-season'. I don't think its complete, but it can still be hiked.

Subject: [pct-l] Pacific Coast Trail

According to my glossy PCT Communicator magazine, there is another  
PCT, the Pacific Coast Trail.

I have tried to look it up on the Internet but it seems people  
confuse the Coast trail for the Crest trail and all I get are pages  
about how the Pacific Coast Trail goes from Mexico to Canada. Even  
former PCT hikers seem to slip the word Coast into the name.

Is there really a real Coast trail? Does anyone have a good source of  
info? I did find one site that showed a couple heading out on their  
trek down the coast but there was nothing about the trail itself, the  
route, maps or anything like that.

Hoping to make a loop out of it someday,
