Although the glitz and glam of Hollywood and The Hills can be appealing, Venice Beach is where you’ll find us chilling! With its adorable canals, buzzing boardwalk, artistic movement and sandy beach, Venice is the ultimate hangout for the free-spirited.
What truly won us over though is its lip-smacking healthy cuisine. From Santa Monica’s delicious farmer’s market (where you’ll spot many celebs doing their grocery shopping) to the endless organic joints found on Abbot Kinney Boulevard and Rose Avenue, all of your cravings are covered! Feel like pizza? Check out both Gjelina and Hostaria del Piccolo’s handpicked toppings. VBW’s candle lit décor and cheesy menu is ideal for the romantics. If the occasion is serious though, then Piccolo and Ado are the way to go.
Coffee break? Intelligentsia Coffeebar is where all the cool kids hang out and 3 Square Cafe + Bakery has got some excellent pastries while Café Gratitude serves a sumptuous brunch.
Whether your style brushes on hipster, hippie or gypsy, Venice’s boutiques have got it all! For shoes, look no further than Mona Moore (a play on “Mon amour”), which is packed with low-priced designer brands; but if it’s jewels you’re after then hurry up and get to Kamofie! The bohemians will surely enjoy Ananda while the quirkier ones should scout Principessa. Vintage and leather fans: Will Leather Goods and The Stronghold both hold some grand treasures!
Now it’s time to unwind and relax. Take a stroll on the sea-front, watch the skater boys, go for a swim at the beach, do some yoga or get yourself a well-deserved massage and facial at Spa Sophia: You’re in Cali, baby!
