Sightseeing
Stroll through the peaceful canals. It's truly one of the gems of So Cal. My favorite place to take out of town guests. Just walk around, watch the ducks stroll past the unique homes of the canals.

This is a quick walk - only 2 blocks from house - and the beach is calm - there are no waves, since it's part of the marina, so it's more "safe" for mothers to take their kids to this beach - watch the sailboats or canoes and enjoy the marina.
