There is nothing like the experience of mixing fresh, hot coffee, with cold pine air, watching the light bounce off the icy needles in...
It's a round-up of my favorite SoCal Beach Piers because Labor Day weekend marks the end of summer...unless you are in Southern California and can hit those beaches all year long.
