Myself and 12 friends rented a house on the beach from AirBnB and it was the most pleasant experience. We could hear the ocean from our hot tub and there was a full arcade downstairs. We got to hang out as a group, cooking dinners together and having fires on the beach. The combination of ocean and forest is unreal. It isn't too hot or too cold, most of the year.
You can get delicious clam chowder or fresh oysters at Moe's Restaurant. There is whale watching that is cheaper than any other city I have ever been to.
