Java Beach is a cozy, local, cafe right across the street from the Pacific Ocean.  The outdoor patio area is enclosed by greenery and slightly in the shade and sun while the indoor space is a popular workpsace for locals and visitors alike.  There are a variety of options for food, but sandwiches are their main option.  My Veggie sub was large enough to share and the homeade coleslaw was incredible.  All of their coffee is sourced locally as well.  This is a great place to stop with the family before heading to Golden Gate Park or Ocean Beach.

Emily Coleman
Emily Coleman is a Jersey girl born and raised who caught the outdoor bug upon moving to Vermont to pursue a degree in Adventure Education and Environmental Studies from Green Mountain College. She spent most of her years before college deeply entrenched in the world of competitive cheerleading before discovering a passion for outdoor sports including mountain biking, white water kayaking, bikepacking, backpacking, slacklining, rock climbing, and skiing. Having been surrounded by children her entire life in her mother's daycare, she always had a strong affinity for kids. She moved to the mountains of Jackson Hole after graduating to coach for the local Kayak Club during the summers and nanny in the winters. Becoming a part of the Happy Active Family team felt like the perfect collision of her passion for building strong community bonds and encouraging an outdoor lifestyle.
