If 24 hours is all you’ve got in Manhattan Beach, these are the top destination recommendations we have for you.

Coffee and a stroll on The Strand

Start your morning with a coffee from Two Guns Espresso and head out for a stroll along The Strand. Dotted with morning joggers, walkers, and cyclists, you’ll have the Pacific on one side of you and some of Manhattan Beach’s most beautiful homes on the other.

Brunch at MB Post

Ricotta stuffed french toast. Still need convincing? MB Post is where the locals go for a pick me up and a bite to eat before heading to the beach for the day.

Hit the beach

Manhattan Beach is the home of professional beach volleyball. From fun pickup games with friends, to the famous Six Man Tournament in August, there’s a game to play for every skill level.

Drinks on the Skydeck at Shade Hotel

After a long day in the sun, unwind with an expertly crafted cocktail at the rooftop bar at the Shade Hotel. Take in the views and get ready to snap some pictures of one of the best views of the sunset you’ll find in town.

Dinner at Metlox

If you’re not sure where to grab a bite for dinner, stroll through Metlox where you’re sure to find a restaurant that hits the spot.

Nightcap at Shellback Tavern

Not ready to call it a night just yet? Head over to local haunt Shellback Tavern and ask for the infamous Fanta Shots. It’s a Manhattan Beach institution. Remember an Uber ride home is just a tap away.
