Crescent Bay Park & Beach:
Walk out the front door one block down the street to Crescent Bay City Park, one of the most photographed places along the California Coast. From the park you can observe the sea lions frolicking around Seal Rock, pods of porpoises surfing the waves, and, in the right season, see the California Grey Whales migrating. Crescent Bay Park is a perfect place to take a photograph, have a picnic, or watch the sunset. Crescent Bay Beach is one of most noted beaches in the city. It's good for boogie boarding, body surfing, skim boarding, diving, swimming, snorkeling, diving, kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing, and more.
Dining & Shopping:
Shopping is nearby at the Von's Pavilions, or Trader Joe's. For heavy duty shopping there is always South Coast Plaza. There are all kinds of recreational activities within walking distance including restaurants, theater, music, bars, and spas. We even have our local French coffee shop run by the enigmatic Jean Paul. He's noted for having the best coffee in the city. If you love golf, there is a good selection of beautiful courses.
