Another fave breakfast spot. I'm biased toward breakfast places. I'm sorry, it's my favorite meal to go out for! This place always a pleasure. Great staff. Great food. Right on the beach.

My favorite local coffee hang. This place was around long before coffee was a "thing." Yes, probably before you were born. There are a few branches, one on the boardwalk. Black Gold is my favorite brew. It will dissolve your spoon if you leave it in too long.

Sightseeing
I know, it's obvious. I thought I'd put this in just in case. If you're on a budget, this could be a freebie or nearly so. You can take the bike path up from Venice, which is a pleasure in itself. Our studio includes two beach cruiser bikes, so you don't even need to rent them.

Fun and free pier visit spot on the southern end of Venice. Biking the bike bath is the best way there. You don;t even have to rent bikes - we have two loaners for your use.

Shopping
This outdoor mall is a show in itself. Beautiful people and buskers alike. Can be a free hangout or you can make it a shop-fest. Fun vibe on the holidays

Drinks & Nightlife
Duh, obvious. If you haven't heard of Abbot Kinney, you probably shouldn't come to Venice. Or at least read up first. (Winky face)
