It's too formal for a first date, but a stroll through the sand at Crystal Cove State Park ensures that the person you're courting knows you're serious about a relationship, as well as that you don't just want to make whoopee on the beach (that's what the coves of Laguna are for). Just a quick bit of advice: Don't take the roads that lead directly onto the beach; you'll get your car stuck there, as our Mexican In Chief found out long ago. . . .
