Californians love their cars, and it shows!

It's true ... we love our cars! I love to drive and then set off from a central location. For example, I drive my car to Laguna Beach, park at Heisler Park, and then explore the beach walks, the shopping, the galleries, the dining, and the sights and sounds of paradise. Rinse and Repeat at ANY number of amazing cities within our county!

Layer, Layer, Layer

Less is truly more here. Californians are COMFORTABLE and CASUAL. Be prepared to add layers in the early mornings and evenings, and shed them during the day time. SUNGLASSES, HATS, and SUN PROTECTION. It's bright here! A great book, because, yes, you are going to relax during this trip! Don't bother with the beach stuff ... we've got it here for you already! SHOES. You really need good support and comfort here. We walk a lot on all kinds of surfaces, so be prepared!

Plan ahead for the best experience

Try to plan ONE thing each day ... even if it's "walk on the beach" or "read another chapter." RESERVE all events you can BEFORE you arrive. The weather is quite consistent here and rarely causes your plans to be spoiled. It takes the worries away when the question "what are we doing tomorrow" is already answered!
