Wide sandy beach with a walkable pier, the small Roundhouse Aquarium, and a family-friendly downtown. Built by the city between 1917 and 1920 with an innovative rounded end designed to withstand pounding surf, it's Southern California's oldest surviving reinforced-concrete pier. The Roundhouse building at its tip opened in 1922 and became a marine-science aquarium in 1981, now run by a local nonprofit.
