Local moves

·

Pier Ave parking is almost impossible on Friday and Saturday evenings - come early or plan to walk from the residential streets.

·

The 11th St lot is the best backup - it is larger and fills later than the pier lot.

·

Hermosa Ave meters are free after 8 PM - good for dinner reservations.

·

Fiesta Hermosa weekends (Memorial Day and Labor Day) close off large sections of Pier Ave - expect gridlock, ride-share or walk from Manhattan Beach.
