Happy Weekend my friends!I am back this week with the fifth installment in my
South Orange CountySummer Sunset Cocktail Series!
This week we are going off the beaten path a bitand I am sharing The Beachcomberin Laguna Beach's Crystal Cove.
Crystal Cove State Beachis made up of over 2,000 acres of wild preserve
and
12 acres beachfront that make up the
Historic District
which is a well preserved example
of a 1930's SoCal Beach Resort.
The Beachcomber is the restaurant on this historic property.
The Beachcomberis a bit of a trek to get to.The parking for all of the property is on the opposite side of the beachacross Pacific Coast highway.
So if you plan to walk
a good flat makes for an enjoyable evening walk.
There is always also a shuttle availablebut we choose to walk acrossby way of the underground tunnel.
Two tunnels were built in the 1930's ensuringbeach access as Pacific Coast Highway took away all parking.It's a beautiful walk of less than ten minutes.
To get a perfect sunset viewdinner is required.But we usually go to the bar which has a side facing viewand then just walk out to the spectacular beachto take in the true sunset.
The Beachcomber definitely has a laid back be achy vibe
with mid prices
and
although the restaurant and bar might be crowded at peak times
the limited parking
always keeps the beach from feeling over run with crowds.
I am always shocked how much our local beaches empty out by sunset.
For me spectacular sunsets are always one of my favorite part of the beach experience!
To see the ocean painted as the sun falls into the water
is always awe inspiring to me!
At the Beachcomber your feet will truly be sandy.
As always my friends
I wish you love and joyas you style your life
