HERMOSA BEACH PLACES TO GO THINGS TO DO
locally built surfboards, which are functional works of art. For more sophisticated fashions there is Luna C in the 200 Pier Ave. building and C’est la Vie across the street. Go south on Hermosa Ave. to Yak & Yeti for an earthier style. Or north on Hermosa Ave. to Fernando’s for adventuresome, one of a kind designs tailored by Fernando himself, as you watch. For the ultimate California fashion statement, visit Hermosa Ink at 8th and Hermosa Ave. for a tattoo. Then skip up the block to the Buzz Pop Candy Shop for a trip back in time to the era of pop rocks and giant gummy bears and salt water taffy washed down with Squamscot Sarsaparilla or Dr. Brown’s Diet Cream. Now you’re ready to walk home. Unless it’s a First Thursday of the month when the stores stay open late and street musi- cians perform. If it’s December, don’t miss the Spyder Snowfest when 30 tons snow turn the Pier Avenue hill into a snowboard run and Santa arrives aboard the Hermosa Fire Department’s hook and ladder to greet kids and light the city holiday tree.
