Laguna beach CA United States of America

We are in Laguna Beach, a place where the rhythm of life seems to follow its own rules. The relaxed atmosphere of this city contrasts with the atmosphere full of sounds: the sharp and melancholy notes of a saxophone mingle with the almost shameless trill of the gulls that flit freely on the beach. This unusual combination of artistic flowering and natural beauty is possibly what attracts more than three million tourists each year visiting the beaches of Laguna Beach and its small center just a few blocks away. Before our eyes unfolds the outline of the coast that stretches indefinitely, as if giving a warm embrace to the calm waters of the Pacific Ocean; Here there are no big hotels that break with the uniformity of the luxurious Californian mansions and the elegant condominiums located in front of the sea. A walk through Main Beach Park, the main beach of the city, reminds us of the atmosphere of opulence and total relaxation that is lived in this place. Men and women of different ages play leisurely volleyball while others simply watch life from the staked benches in the vicinity. We crossed a small wooden pier to leave behind the coast and we entered the city; The rumors of the beach are transformed into urban bustle, without the atmosphere being tense by the change of sand to pavement under our feet. The cleanliness in this city is overwhelming. Not a single waste ruins the neatness of these avenues surrounded by palm trees. This way we reach Broadway Street, the widest street in the city, where all kinds of shops are located, from restaurants such as Romeo Cucina, known for its healthy food, to boutiques and exclusive beauty salons such as Blu Laguna Salon & Spa. The flow of cars passing through here is constant but not tumultuous. No horn interrupts the distant music of a saxophonist that reaches our ears. Following the recommendation of the locals we stop at the famous ice cream shop Dolce Gelato to mitigate the heat that prevails in the streets, and taste the specialty of the place: pistachio ice cream.
