Sophistication with a beach bent sums up life in this exclusive coastal town that offers singles a cool alternative to Los Angeles. Hit the waves to find your sun bunny, or heat things up with a game of beach volleyball. After playing hard in the surf and sand, grab a craft cocktail at laid-back and personal M.B. Post, where communal restaurant tables make flirting a breeze. To cap a romantic evening, head to Manhattan Beach Creamery with your new sweetheart and enjoy house-made ice cream sandwiches while taking in the glorious sunset.
