Grab a quick bite at Raymundo's Taco Shop. The menu offers staple options that are reasonably priced and filling enough to tide you over.
16:45
Walk to Children's Pool Beach. Find a quiet spot on the sand or the rocks to settle in. The beach is a favorite breeding spot for harbor seals, so keep your eyes on the water for them lounging in the shallows. Note that swimming may not be permitted depending on current regulations.
17:05
The sun sets toward the WSW, casting a warm glow over the beach and the seals. This is the perfect moment to watch the light fade and the day turn to evening.

End your evening at Warwick's Books. It is an independent bookstore nearby where you can browse for gifts, stationary, or a new read to take home.
