- Scott CPanama City, Panama850 contributionsFishing in dirty water, churros, and lots of merch from China. Very cool Classic cars, and man singing like Satchmo, trapeze classes too. Pretty diverse spot but a tourist point for sure.Written May 18, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Grover RPensacola, FL21,780 contributionsOn my last trip to LA, we did not get to the beach or at least Santa Monica as we were in Long Beach. The beaches you really think about when you think Los Angeles are the beaches along Santa Monica Bay, so the trip I made the effort to visit Santa Monica and see the beach. While as a Gulf Coast guy, I prefer a white sand beach, this was a great beach. The background of mountains here on the coast is simply something we don't have. I am very glad we made the great beaches around LA for this visit.Written April 21, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Doug P10 contributionsThis is a “must-do” experience when visiting SoCal! Where else can you ride for miles and miles next to beautiful sandy beaches and the ocean without having to worry about car traffic? The piers at various beaches along the way were perfect stopping points, and Hermosa Beach had great restaurants and shops towards the end of the path to check out. When you get to the southern end at Torrance Beach, challenge yourself by riding up the steep ramp to a parking lot that provides a spectacular view of the coastline you just rode along . Five stars!Written December 30, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- AMohsenPort Said, Egypt490 contributionsThe most popular and vibrant beaches in Los Angeles are Santa Monica and Venice beaches, so they must be on the list. The sea water quality and color are not that impressive, but the beach is quite joyful and picturesque. The popular Baywatch towers are there. Many people are having fun there by either sport, swimming, picnic, walks, and others.Written February 17, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
