Lunch time
For lunch, grab pizza at Spring Lake Pizzeria (1110 3rd Ave.) and top it off with a one-scoop ice cream cone for 99 cents at Third Avenue Chocolate Shoppe (1118 3rd Ave.) or chocolate from Jean Louise Homemade Candies (1205 3rd Ave.).
On the move
To get away from the crowds, check out Divine Park (801 Lake Drive) and Spring Lake, the spring-fed lake that gives the town its name.
In the afternoon, check out the Third Avenue shopping district, filled with mom and pop stores. Among them are boutiques like Juli Mei (1303 3rd Ave.) and Hive (1203 3rd Ave.), stores like Bare Wires Surf Shop (1307 3rd Ave.), and, for a pick-me-up, Driftwood, a coffee house (1102 3rd Ave.).
