Grab some of their poke (I recommend half salmon half tuna) and mosey on over to the beach just a few blocks away to enjoy your fresh fish as you watch the sun set.

여행 팁

준비물

Always bring layers

It can cool off quickly in the evenings since we are so close to the ocean, so be an onion! I always have a sweater or jacket with me, even if it was a balmy 80 degrees during the day.
