Beach holidays in Los Angeles
Explore 70 miles of coastline on your Los Angeles beach holiday, from craggy cliffs to sandy beaches, perfect for surfing and swimming. Seek out the stunning, rocky coastline and surfing north of Malibu on your beach holiday. Or sit back and people watch on the beaches around Santa Monica.
Secluded beaches in Los Angeles
In a metropolis like Los Angeles, secluded beach holidays can be hard to find, either filled with crowds or privately owned. For a secluded holiday on the sand, choose El Pescador, LA Piedra or El Matador Beaches, where tiny, sandy coves lie hidden among rock formations. Also, go to the beaches in the week, when it's quieter.
Sporty beaches in Los Angeles
Spend your holiday watching the experts at Surfrider Beach, Los Angeles' best surfing centre. Ride the surf yourself at Topanga Beach, Manhattan State Beach, where the Beach Boys once hung out, or white-sand Hermosa City Beach. Or try something new on your holiday like sailing or deep-sea fishing in Marina del Rey and sea kayaking at Newport Beach.
Family beaches in Los Angeles
Take the kids to Santa Monica State Beach, a popular Los Angeles family beach with mild surf, golden sand and cafes. Nearby, Will Rogers State Beach offers swimmer-friendly surf, restrooms and lifeguards. You'll find swimming and sunbathing at Venice Beach as well, but Venice is popular for its fun, eclectic characters: fire jugglers, tattooed musclemen and buskers.
Party beaches in Los Angeles
Despite being the United States' entertainment capital, Los Angeles' beaches revolve around swimming and surfing rather than late-night parties. But you'll find some beachside fun after hours, at Venice Beach, where the daytime antics of bikini-clad skaters and chainsaw artists morph into an evening party on the sand and in neighbouring bars and cafes.
