QT BEACH RECOVERY DAY
A Few Thing to Know
Guests are welcome to arrive anytime and stay as long as they'd like — Tessa & Andrew will join around 1:00 PM.
If the marine layer decides to stick around, don't worry — the plan is to gather at the beach by bonfire regardless. Fingers crossed for sunshine!
One heads up: Three Arch Bay does require a stair descent to reach the sand, so keep that in mind when you're getting ready.
Getting There
All guests will be checked in by name at the gate. Beach access is via the stairs directly across from 5 S La Senda, Laguna Beach.
We recommend Uber/Lyft to the address. Alternatively, the Laguna Beach Trolley stops at the top of Three Arch Bay — a short downhill walk to the beach. If you're carpooling, please let us know!
What to Bring
Bringing yourself is more than enough!
We will have lite snacks and beverages on hand, but feel free to bring your own food, drinks and cooler.
The beach can get warm, so sunscreen, a towel, and a hat are always a good idea. A light hoodie or sweater is never a bad idea, especially if you plan on staying into the evening or if it is a grey day. While there is natural shade and some seating, if you’d like extra comfort we recommend bringing a chair and/or umbrella.
Q & T’s LAGUNA & DANA POINT FAVORITES - A LITTLE PIECE OF HOME
For many of our guests, Laguna Beach is a destination. For us, it's where we grew up. These are the places that shaped us — the spots we dragged our families to, snuck off to for high school lunches, and keep coming back to as adults. If you have extra time before, during or after the weekend, consider this your insider's guide from two locals who know these towns by heart.
CASUAL EATS: AhBa — A favorite for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Order the burger and caesar salad — trust us. La Sirena Grill — Best to-go Mexican food in town. Don't leave without the chips and guac. Wigz — Perfect grab-and-go sandwiches, or settle into their back patio if you have time.
BEST COCKTAILS:Nick's — Our go-to dinner spot. Get the martini, no questions asked. The Deck and Hotel Laguna — Cocktails on the beach. Enough said.
