From the tree-lined downtown area located near the ocean beach where you can walk along the beautiful pier, to the intimate shopping of Manhattan Village Mall, and the variety of services and shops along Sepulveda Boulevard, Manhattan Beach has it all -- shopping, fun and relaxation in the world's best year-round weather.
Dining choices are nearly endless. Whatever tickles your tastebuds, you'll find it superbly prepared at one of Manhattan Beach's fine restaurants.
The city boasts a private tennis club and a 9-hole public golf course. The community provides a multitude of activities for its residents, including surfing and volleyball at the beach, and a variety of sports activities in its seven parks. Polliwog park is the setting for Sunday afternoon concerts during the summer months and is the site of a "sunken galleon" for the children.
For those born to shop, this is the place. Manhattan Beach has it all: the unique, the unusual, the outrageous and the classic. A shopper's delight with an array of shops, boutiques and major department stores.
Manhattan Beach, with its rich past, exciting present and promising future, is primarily a residential community. Making you feel at home is one of the things Manhattan Beach does best. With its small town living atmosphere, it will steal your heart, free your mind and warm your spirits.
