Local Lifestyle

The lifestyle here encourages intimacy with the ocean. Nearly every nook and corner of South Laguna allows you to bask in the invigorating sea breeze. While its real estate is slightly gentler on the pocket than North Laguna's, it's no less captivating. The community here also catches the eyes of those who prefer a less crowded yet equally charming coastal living experience.
 
Three Arch Bay is a gated community par excellence with beach access on Mussel Cove, walled off on both ends by cliffs. Homes are located atop high bluffs, offering wondrous views of the Pacific Ocean. Residents can access the beach via three stairways. Two miles to the north, Aliso Beach Park is a family-friendly beach with off-street parking, lifeguards, and a play area for kids. If you want a stunning oceanfront mansion, check out Lagunita, where properties range from about 1,100 square feet to over 7,000 square feet.
 

Dining and Entertainment

The elusive allure of Helen’s (speakeasy) is hard to ignore. The moment you step in, you are welcomed into an enigmatic world of artisanal cocktails and 1920s glam. Whether it's a date night or an evening to unwind, the place promises an unforgettable experience of mystery and sophistication.
 
For a lively night out with robust flavors, look no further than Coyote Grill. The atmosphere pulses with vivacity, complemented by a service that stands out for its congeniality. Add to that a bar that resonates with the tunes of live music, and you've got yourself an impeccable night out. Coyote Grill has been serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner daily since 1989 and is popular with the locals thanks to its addicting Baja-style Mexican food. 
 
Another culinary experience worth mentioning is Starfish, where every bite is an ode to the ocean. The setting is plush and comfortable, and the drink menu is a cherry on top of an irresistible dining experience.
 

Things to Do

Among the myriad activities, a visit to Montage stands prominent. It's not just another resort; it's counted among California's finest, offering a haven of luxury and scenic beauty. Montage is the go-to place for a spa day, a five-star dinner by the ocean, or to meet up with friends in the lobby for cocktails, coffee, or snacks before a night out elsewhere. Filled with couches and jaw-dropping views of the beach, ocean, and coastline (as well as the resort itself), the lobby at the Montage is a destination in and of itself. 
 
For the art enthusiast, the Sawdust Art Festival and Pageant of the Masters are cultural feasts you don't want to miss. These annual events attract artisans and art lovers alike, offering an eclectic range of art forms that showcase the creative brilliance that the area is known for.
