Local Guides: From Summit to Shore

A truly memorable getaway isn’t just about a beautiful place to stay—it’s about the experiences you have and the discoveries you make. At Summit & Shore, we celebrate this spirit of exploration by offering two completely different slices of California life. One is a world of crisp mountain air, cozy village shops, and alpine adventure; the other is a sun-drenched scene of iconic beaches, vibrant city life, and endless entertainment.

So, what kind of adventure are you looking for? Will you be hitting the ski slopes in winter or hiking scenic trails in the summer near our cabin? Or perhaps you’d prefer to explore world-famous landmarks in Santa Monica, catch a game at SoFi Stadium, or simply find the best spot on the sand at Manhattan Beach from our apartment. Whatever your pace, our curated local guides are designed to help you find the perfect activities to complete your stay. Explore our recommendations below.
