Food Scene

Great cocktails, cool vibe and pretty good food. Try the Ahi tower! Ask for Stephanie at the bar to make your drink. She is an award winning bartender with her own drink line sold in stores!

Best Pizza! I worked here as a kid (pics still on the wall) and they filmed part of the Jay Moriarity movie "Chasing Mavericks here. Cool to grab a slice and walk to the cliffs and watch the surfers at "The Hook" and Pleasure point. Great walking path too!

We love this place. It is right at the tiny airport. Watch small planes fly in and out. Lots of pilots fly in just to grab a bite to eat and go. They have live music a lot and great cocktails!

Great beach to spend the day at! If you park on Ocean View Drive (street before the Manresa Parking lot) you can park for free and walk down the stairs. (same distance from Manresa Parking lot to beach). But there are not any bathrooms/showers if you go the free parking way. We typically park for free and it works great. The closest beach to our house is walking distance from our house (~3/4 mile) but not great if you have gear you want to bring down or little ones who are not down for a longer walk (both ways)

The beach and the park are beautiful. Best during off season or during the week in my opinion as it gets a bit busy but the tide pools are awesome, the natural bridge beautiful, and during the weekends, from mid-October through through mid-January, guided tours of the Monarch Butterfly Grove are available at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m., with peak monarch observation occurring in late-November and early-December, according to a Docent Naturalist.

Great to rent a kayak and go fishing in the slough! One of our favorite things to do. That whole area around Moss Landing is great. Check out The Haute Cafe and art studio &Phil's Fish Market.
