Cute stores on Main Street. Put on your sneakers and walk the sidewalk around the island. Great views! The Village Inn has live music on the weekends in a family friendly dinner environment. Take the Balboa Ferry to the Peninsula! Just a few $$s and fun, great for pictures.

Great sunset a block from our house. Put on your sneakers and walk a trail out to a point. Even by crossing Irvine, on the main trail you will see a great sunset.

Diverse customers, but its close, reasonable prices for drinks, snacks and limited produce, although limited selection. You won't find brie, but they have the basics.
