Take a Stroll along the Beach

An early morning walk is invigorating.

A sunset stroll is relaxing and romantic.

Funny how the same exercise can produce two such different feelings!

No matter where you may be staying while visiting Southern California, there are plenty of places to walk. Most would agree that the most scenic spots are along the beach. The air is fresh and clean, and the tangy sea salt aroma permeates your surroundings. The juxtaposition of crashing ocean waves with gently receding waters instantly brings about a feeling of powerful tranquility. It is mesmerizing as you walk, jog or just gaze at the water.

Walkers can choose the sand (either soft or hard pack at the water's edge) or the boardwalk. Reward yourself afterwards and choose a place to eat, grab a coffee, or enjoy a healthy snack or smoothie.
