Manhattan's pier is a bustling, pedestrian-friendly commercial nexus full of high-quality restaurants and designer shops. Area beaches are public and quite well kept, attracting Manhattan Beach residents and other Angelenos for beach volleyball, surfing, strolling along the strand, or sunbathing. Locals find that some errands can be accomplished on foot, but that access to a vehicle is still important, as the commerce along Sepulveda Blvd. (the Pacific Coast Highway) is vital.
