Food Scene

A 4 minute walk. Only 0.2 miles total. The California burrito is amazing, but so is everything else. This is our absolute favorite. This is directly across the street from our home and walking distance. It is in the same shopping center as Albertsons and the gas station.

Drinks & Nightlife

We love the concerts here and the food isn’t bad either. Intimate space with a low-key vibe offers a full dinner menu, cocktails & a range of performances. It’s a 27 minute walk or a quick 3 minute drive. Tickets typically range $15-$35 bucks per person. Great guitarist Marc Seal is performing here Saturday Feb. 24th @ 8pm for $20, he’s a locals favorite.

Sightseeing

The most beautiful beach in town, it's breath taking. You can sit here all day in the grass slopes or on the sand. This beach sits right next to The Ritz Carlton for a reason. This beach is worth a long walk on. Parking is typically $2. Best to drive there, due to steep hills.
