Welcome to Manhattan Beach, California, where the sun is hot and the people are hotter. Whether it's surfing or shopping you'll find the best of the best, and the hottest of the hot, living their lives in luxury. So if you came from a town like New York, Miami, or Chicago, and you thought you were living the life there, you have never truly stepped foot onto the prospects of Manhattan Beach.

The local high school, the place where the most boring hours of the young citizens lives take place. Well, some people like it, but other’s excuse is that, at least, you can socialize with people here. The attendance in the school is obligatory to all teenagers of age fourteen to eighteen. MBH is formed by nicely big buildings, divided in the three sciences of life and the main building, one soccer field, one football field, a couple of courts where the students can play volleyball, tennis, and an Olympic pool.
The second you step off of the pier you have just taken a small peak at Manhattan Beach. The Boulevard is lined with everything you could possibly need or would like to do for entertainment purposes. From Off the Edge, the infamous surf and sport shop to all of your up and coming designer shops such as Anonymous and Sarah Jane. The life in Manhattan Beach seems to be most intriguing place to be.
Some call it the Pacific Ocean, but we just like to call it Manhattan Beach. Located in between other cities beaches such as, Redondo's, Hermosa's, Santa Monica's, Venice's, and Malibu's it can be easily said that Manhattan Beach is at the top of that hierarchy. The beach walk, located almost directly on the sand is fabulous for fun in the sun, renting a bike or a pair of roller blade's is always a fun thing to do while out there.
There are many white cliffs around the world like The White Cliffs of Dover, for example but the infamous White Cliffs of Manhattan Beach are just as nice. MB's cliffs are probably smaller than Dover's but they're still as spectacular. Just don't go jumping off them.
The rich families usually have yachts, and if they own yachts then they are bound to need a place to keep them. But the yacht club goes beyond yacht keeping, it has also got a yacht renting centre and a lovely restaurant and V.I.P. waiting room. It is all called the good life, honeys.
Extending about a hundred yards out into the Pacific Ocean stands Manhattan's very own pier. The pier tends to be lined with wooden benches and holiday decorations for the appropriate season. So as you admire the oceans and the surfer's who seem to be out there every morning at 6:00am daily you can also take a stroll to the aquarium. Once you hit the end of the pier is a small aquarium consisting of all of the fish you could find in the Pacific Ocean.
Located just mere steps away from the California shoreline is the heart of Manhattan Beach. The Kettle has been in California for just as long as Manhattan Beach was made it's own, sweet city. The palm trees surrounding the outdoor eating area would lead most to believe it is more than just your average family style diner.
It's strange that the Belamar Museum is only full of fish fossils and old books and such so it could seem very boring for the youngsters of MB. But if you find books and education fun, you may as well go visit.
The prestigious hotel isn't located directly on the beach but if you wanted to it is within walking distance. Not only is the hotel welcome to just guest from other states or cities but hosts as a main event station to those commuters of Manhattan Beach. The pool, spa, and lounge serves as a top party place to Manhattan's elite and makes those other renown California cities turn to shame.
Besides the educational Museum there is also the Belamar Library filled from top to bottom with all the books you could dream of reading. Most tutor lessons happen hear, and there are many club organisations here. But only the smart people come when they have a choice.
Each and every town has their own park. And most of the time they are consisting of nothing but a simple swing set for the children and a few park benches. But how many park's do you know that have all of that plus being surrounded by palm tree's and mansions? Just one is here, and that is known most commonly as MC by all of the youth that hang out here.
The so called Ocean Avenue. There is even a song out there based on it, and all the things you did there with your date. Well, there isn’t exactly much on this avenue apart from the amazing view to the beach and a nice little side walk with some stands that sell stuff from art craft to food. If you live in Manhattan Beach then the avenue is also way to the local high school, some neighborhoods, parks and squares.
Located directly on Ocean Avenue is a small little coffee and sandwich shop that caters to most of Manhattan's daily life. The cafe is a white stucco building that has an outdoor patio perfect for the gorgeous California nights.
This square could be one of the most romantic places in all of Manhattan Beach, most of the locals call it romance square. Which is exactly what it means when translated into french. It's the place people usually go when trying to make someone like them more then friends. If you want some ass, go there because I'm telling you, it works like a charm.
Don't let the name put you off, while Freddie's gym may not be the poshest name you'll hear Freddie's is right up there amongst the most expensive and effective gyms you'll visit. Freddie's was originally a small hall where the legendary boxer Freddie Kanoute trained. The place used to be a dump but now you won't find a better gym for miles. Don't expect to get in here easily, though. You know what they say, good excercise doesn't come cheap!
What a place to come to do prohibited stuff. There is no better place to do that, hence the alley is all dark, quiet and deserted. A nice set of qualities for people who are not afraid to break the law, but be aware; the alley isn’t a place if you’re not familiar with ‘the stuff’ so, if I were you, I wouldn’t come here just to check out on what is it like.
Due to nearby course of water, there is a lovely lake a little away from the center of Manhattan Beach. Although it isn’t that famous and not that big, its margins are very well cared for, with lovely trees and decoration plants surrounding it. Many people come here to jog, walk their dogs and sometimes even fish, but swimming is permanently forbidden hence the lake is quite deep and its waters are quite fast for a middle sized lake.
Located a bit away from the center of Manhattan Beach, the university has a wide campus and one of the biggest varieties of majors available. The Campus involves about 150 yards of beach where course such as Oceanography take place. There is also a big building of co-ed dormitories and at least two pavilions where classes of all the sorts take place. On the farthest side of the Campus there is an experimental farm and the veterinary hospital. On the center of the university it is set the teaching hospital and the laboratories. The University also has its own paper and TV channel along with its bi-monthly shows where the students are the ones who present in it.
Manhattan Beach is indeed a beach, and in beaches there are docks for ships to bring stuff from elsewhere and take stuff to elsewhere. The smell of fish here is horribly strong, so you really have to consider twice how long you want to stay here. But, you never know, people might end up liking that smell.
Rodeo Drive generally refers to a famous three-block long stretch of boutiques and shops in Beverly Hills, California, United States, although the street stretches further north and south. It is known as one of the most expensive shopping districts in the world. And is home to top notch designers such as Chanel, Cartier, Gucci, Louis Vuitton plus many more. The center divide on this street was a horse path until the early 1950s, thus the name, but the shopping district as presently constituted developed in the 1970s. The business district, which extends from Wilshire Boulevard to Santa Monica Boulevard, is at once an exclusive shopping district, but also a major tourist attraction. The "Rodeo Drive" business district also includes those businesses on the streets that lie for a few blocks in either direction.
Clearly located in Beverly Hills, just a short thirty minute car ride down Pacific Coast High-way, is the lux Beverly Hills Hotel. Located directly on Sunset Boulevard and in the heart of the celebrity claimed area. The extensive gardens of the grounds were designed to fit the city's inception, the hotel has been a central meeting place for residents and business people, especially from Los Angeles's movie and television industries. Not only that but also for the youth of California which have turned it into their own personal playground.
Universal Studios. You may know it from the thousands of movies and TV shows that are produced there yearly. Or you may know it from it's amusement park that people from all over California travel to. Come to the amusement/water park for a day of fun, or come out at night to their entertainment wing, which is home to some of the finest restaurants and bars in Hollywood. Either reason you come here for the time spent here is bound to be unforgettable.
Located a few blocks away from Rodeo Drive, Ivy has been in Beverly Hills forever. The old classical, yet very expensive French restaurant has been called top dining spot in all of Southern California for the past three years, and not only that but is favorite restaurant to many stars. Look prim and proper whenever you're here, you never know who you are going to be running into.
There aren't many places around like Fat Joe's alley because it isn't a place where you do drugs or anything. In fact it is actually a bowling alley. Get into the groove with the swinging music and the hipping lights. Or at least that's what your parents would say trying to get back their old mojos.
Located right off of Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood is one of California's hot spots. Backstage literally does have a back stage but you have to be on the "list" to get back there. Mainly VIP and their friends are back there but if you can't make it back there the bar and stage area is fun whether you are on the VIP list or not.
There has got to be something connecting the road which is divided by the river, and that is the bridge. Surrounded by lovely trees and nature, the bridge can do quite a place to hang out, hence not many cars use them these days. Most of the cars just go through the highway, allowing the bridge to have quite a nice and silent atmosphere for people who want a time to relax.
If you're not in the mood to get dressed up all fancily just for a drink why don't you pop over to The White Hart for a simple drink? You could watch the game, and even get a meal. But one things for sure, you'll find a lot of sleazy girls here past 12am.
With a lake, of course there has to be a fall somewhere. Such is the case of The Ravine, a course of water fall that leads on to the sea, passing through the Lake of Santa Monica. The fall is surrounded by nature and many come camping here, but they have to bring food themselves for the government forbids the opening of anything industrial around here.
The name of Burnside Forest didn't really take too long in coming up because the forest is located near a burn. Only the really bad ass kids go here during the night, but you'll find just the average school haters bunking school during the day too.
Want to go anywhere else that is not listed here? Disneyland, Vegas, New York, Paris, Berlin, anywhere? Than Elsewhere is the place for you. Don’t let boards set your limits, let your imagination go as far as you can.
Crystal Cove, the condos located on Sepulveda Boulevard. Only a two minute walk away from Manhattan Beach, Public beach that is. Unless owners of these condos would prefer to bathe in luxury on their own private beaches.
Located on La Brea Avenue, the Pembrook Court condos have the quickest access to MC Park as it is now known as. These condos include many big fields, pools, courts, and etc.
Piazza Dela Viraje, Italian for Viraje Square, is located by Place Romane. These baroque villa's have the Italian theme, and set the romantic atmosphere for those living there.
As any other university, this one too offers dorms for the students. The dorms are also co-ed, and for a matter of both space saving and social reasons, there are four students per dorm and one big bathroom, per floor.
Manhattan Beach High provides dormitories for those who don't live near the school or for whoever needs it. The dorms are Co-Ed and there are four students per dorm.
By no means can we change the past, but in this board you get the chance to revive old moments, whether they were good or bad ones. Stick to your character’s history if you’re coming in here, don’t use this as a time machine, use it as a memory lane. It’s the chance you get to make things real.
We all dream when we are asleep, some of us even dreams awake- especially during those really boring classes. So come here to play those weirdest meaningless dreams your character has been having, or just that really real one they had last night. Whatever, it is your pick. Anything can happen in a dream, only you can put down to words.
Although none of us can really tell what will happen in our future, we can choose what will happen to the characters’ future. Such is the benefit of the role playing game. Come here to find out what will happen next, whether on the next few weeks or the next few years.
Post here if you won't be able to come to the site for longer then 5 days, please, so we can save your account and know that you will come back eventually.
