Introducing Porsche La Mer.

Porsche has teamed up with Smoky Beach at La Mer to bring this ultimate cool beach hang out.

Chill on bean bags, sip on delish smoothies by the beach, treat yourself to something from the menu (go for the sushi and follow it up with LOTUS cheese cake) and yup, there’s a slick Porsche on site for you to check out. Seriously, you can get up close and personal with a Porsche and try shisha from a Porsche shisha pipe…dreamy!
