Absolute Best Take-out Chinese. They have dine in too, but most locals get take out right out of the back door of the kitchen behind Wells Fargo. Take it out and bring it home or take it to the beach and enjoy.

Everybody has to visit Spanish Bay and have a drink at sunset while the bagpiper salutes the sun for the evening. Gate fee is just a little over $10 and well worth it. We recommend to drive the coast to the Lodge and stop along the way, especially at The Lone Cypress. Be careful not to get close to the water on high surf days.
