MANHATTAN BEACH, CA — With sublime weather and a three day holiday weekend for the observance of the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday Monday, Jan. 18, Manhattan Beach is set to be the place to be... outdoors, at the beach, in the ocean, ordering food to-go and enjoying small household gatherings throughout the city. Mid-day Friday, Jan. 15, Manhattan Beach Patch found folks with beach blankets and chairs on the sand enjoying food purchased from nearby restaurants. Other prime locations for sitting with some food to-go included benches on the Manhattan Beach Pier, The Strand and at City Hall in the Civic Center Plaza near the library, police and fire station and city hall. Surfers lined the ocean and were joined by boogie boarders and other water enthusiasts as decent-sized waves churned toward the shore intermittently, their water spray rolling backward with the breeze.
