Coffee a little closer to home. The owner makes a killer Iced Mocha - it actually has dark chocolate shavings mixed in instead of powder or syrup!

A SoCal staple! If you're not from the land of In -N-Out, you need to try it. Walk away with a couple meals for around $10 and be totally delighted. Look up the secret menu lingo before going, too. :)

Shopping

Cruise Main Street for some awesome thrift store finds - thrift stores here are amazing! Buffalo Exchange leads the pack, though - it's a higher end clothes resale shop.

Drinks & Nightlife

While the downstairs hotel bar at the Crowne Plaza isn't stunning in itself, the outdoor seating section is to die for. The sound of waves rolling in, comfy chairs and fire pits, and pure relaxation.

Sightseeing

The beach by our house is great, so walk there if you'd like. If you want to go where the surfers and pier are, turn right out of the house and bike toward the bike path at the end of Pierpont.
