Food scene

Awesome food! A great place for a morning walk. Open for breakfast and lunch. Smash burgers on weekends with great fries as well! Picnic benches in the cypress trees. One of the best views in town! Directly across from the iconic Steamer Lane. Only 0.7 mile walk and mostly through Lighthouse Park. If you brought your furry friend they will love the park and then head down to It’s beach for the full time dog party. No leash tickets there.

A little less traditional, more hip sushi spot. Expect a wait. A little further drive, about 10 minutes. Worth it! Everyone loves Akira. Happy hour is 2-4pm

Our local market! Everything you need. I rarely shop anywhere else. Local tip for the kids- There's soft serve ice cream at the coffee bar. The sushi is good, and made all day. Hot food bar, sandwiches, soups, great butcher, all the produce you could wish for..

Less than 2 mile walk along the coast to get to Natural Bridges. Check out the tide pools when the tide is low, and don't forget to look for Monarchs on the monarch trail- Typically the monarchs begin arriving in mid-October and leave by mid-February.
