If you&rsquo;re <a href=\"https:\/\/www.neighbor.com\/storage-blog\/moving-to-los-angeles-10-things-to-consider\/\">thinking of making the move to Los Angeles<\/a>, you&rsquo;ll want to know where the best California beaches are (you&rsquo;ll may also want to find a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.neighbor.com\/Los-Angeles--California-self-storage?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_campaign=contentlinks\">Los Angeles storage unit<\/a>, but that&rsquo;s not nearly as fun). In this post, we&rsquo;ll break down some of the most popular Los Angeles beaches and tell you what people like about them. If you&rsquo;re just planning a visit, then the list will give you some ideas for the best beaches in Los Angeles for your particular interests.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"1-leo-carrillo-state-park\">1. Leo Carrillo State Park<\/h2>\n<p>This is the perfect beach for those looking to get away from the crowds and have a relaxing day enjoying nature along the Pacific Ocean. Longboarders will find the waves mellow and enjoyable &mdash; in fact, they rarely get above chest-level. Also, fans of nature will have plenty to see, like the rock formations, sea caves, and tide pools scattered along the mile-long stretch of beach. At Leo Carrillo State Park, you&rsquo;ll even find campgrounds with parking for RVs, showers, and picnic areas.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Beach Website:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.parks.ca.gov\/?page_id=616\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Leo Carrillo State Park<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Best Suited For: Scenic enjoyment, dog owners<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote>\n<h4 id=\"pro-tip\">Pro Tip:<\/h4>\n<p>This is one of the few Los Angeles beaches that allow dogs. So, bring the family dog along for an oceanfront walk! Just be sure to keep them on a leash.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<html><body><div id=\"in_post\">\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/www.neighbor.com\/host\" onclick=\"rudderanalytics.track('press editorial cta button', {location: 'first in post', version: '2.0'}, () =&gt; { console.log('track call'); });\">\r\n  <div class=\"first-in-post-cta\">\r\n    <header>\r\n      <h2 id=\"can-we-pay-you-to-store-vehicles\">Can we pay you to store vehicles?<\/h2>\r\n    <\/header>\r\n    <section>\r\n      <div class=\"service-option\">\r\n        <div class=\"service-option-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"60\" height=\"60\" viewbox=\"0 0 60 60\" fill=\"none\">\r\n            <path d=\"M26.7552 20.0573C26.2911 20.9853 26.2499 22.3578 26.2499 24.375H33.7499C33.7499 22.3577 33.7088 20.9853 33.2448 20.0573C33.0557 19.6792 32.8 19.3973 32.3888 19.1841C31.9442 18.9535 31.2108 18.75 30 18.75C28.7892 18.75 28.0558 18.9535 27.6112 19.1841C27.2 19.3973 26.9442 19.6792 26.7552 20.0573Z\" fill=\"#005EB8\"><\/path>\r\n            <path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M28.0777 4.32887C29.3195 3.87732 30.6805 3.87732 31.9223 4.32887L48.7973 10.4652C51.0173 11.2725 52.5 13.3777 52.5 15.7462V33.1425C52.5 33.7407 52.4058 34.3605 52.1888 34.9629C47.861 46.9738 35.9939 53.5676 32.1164 55.464C30.7986 56.1086 29.2843 56.1505 27.9278 55.5549C23.9729 53.8185 12.0728 47.6941 7.77513 34.8948C7.58399 34.3255 7.5 33.7394 7.5 33.1762V15.7481C7.5 13.3807 8.98165 11.2729 11.2027 10.4652L28.0777 4.32887ZM22.4998 24.1662L22.4999 24.375C20.4289 24.375 18.75 26.054 18.75 28.125V35.625C18.75 37.6961 20.4289 39.375 22.5 39.375H37.5C39.5711 39.375 41.25 37.6961 41.25 35.625V28.125C41.25 26.0539 39.5711 24.375 37.5 24.375L37.5 24.166C37.5016 22.4546 37.5037 20.19 36.5989 18.3802C36.0848 17.352 35.2859 16.4621 34.115 15.855C32.9776 15.2652 31.6017 15 30 15C28.3983 15 27.0224 15.2652 25.885 15.855C24.7141 16.4621 23.9152 17.352 23.4011 18.3802C22.4961 20.1901 22.4982 22.4547 22.4998 24.1662Z\" fill=\"#005EB8\"><\/path>\r\n          <\/svg><\/div>\r\n        <h3 id=\"list-your-unused-space\">List your unused space<\/h3>\r\n        <p>People are earning $1,000s per year from their garages and outdoor space.<\/p>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"service-option\">\r\n        <div class=\"service-option-icon\">\r\n          <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"60\" height=\"60\" viewbox=\"0 0 60 60\" fill=\"none\">\r\n            <path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M13.125 9.375C11.0539 9.375 9.375 11.0539 9.375 13.125V46.875C9.375 48.9461 11.0539 50.625 13.125 50.625H46.875C48.9461 50.625 50.625 48.9461 50.625 46.875V13.125C50.625 11.0539 48.9461 9.375 46.875 9.375H13.125ZM28.125 16.875C28.125 15.8395 28.9645 15 30 15C31.0355 15 31.875 15.8395 31.875 16.875V20.625H35.625C36.6605 20.625 37.5 21.4645 37.5 22.5C37.5 23.5355 36.6605 24.375 35.625 24.375H26.25C25.2145 24.375 24.375 25.2145 24.375 26.25C24.375 27.2855 25.2145 28.125 26.25 28.125H33.75C36.8566 28.125 39.375 30.6434 39.375 33.75C39.375 36.8566 36.8566 39.375 33.75 39.375H31.875V43.125C31.875 44.1605 31.0355 45 30 45C28.9645 45 28.125 44.1605 28.125 43.125V39.375H22.5C21.4645 39.375 20.625 38.5355 20.625 37.5C20.625 36.4645 21.4645 35.625 22.5 35.625H33.75C34.7855 35.625 35.625 34.7855 35.625 33.75C35.625 32.7145 34.7855 31.875 33.75 31.875H26.25C23.1434 31.875 20.625 29.3566 20.625 26.25C20.625 23.1434 23.1434 20.625 26.25 20.625H28.125V16.875Z\" fill=\"#005EB8\"><\/path>\r\n          <\/svg>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n        <h3 id=\"approve-your-renters\">Approve your renters<\/h3>\r\n        <p>You're in control.

Venice Beach<\/h2>\n<p>This is probably the most famous of Los Angeles beaches. Even if you&rsquo;ve never been near Southern California, you&rsquo;ve seen Venice Beach &mdash; with its iconic boardwalk and famous Muscle Beach workout area &mdash; in countless TV shows and movies. The waves aren&rsquo;t spectacular here, so it isn&rsquo;t a popular surf spot (regardless of how it may be portrayed on TV). But it is an iconic Los Angeles landmark and a great place to enjoy a bit of people watching, as the crowds get pretty heavy here most of the time.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Beach Website: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laparks.org\/venice\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Venice Beach<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Best Suited For: Tourists<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"3-el-matador-state-beach\">3. El Matador State Beach<\/h2>\n<p>Another one of the top secluded Los Angeles beaches, El Matador is very popular for its romantic vibe. The beach is small and filled with rock formations, so it isn&rsquo;t an ideal place for those looking to run around in the sand. But it is one of the most beautiful beaches in Los Angeles County, which is why it is so favored for date nights. Like on many of the other LA beaches, you&rsquo;ll find caves and coves to explore. Located nearby are the El Pescador and La Piedra beaches, which are fellow members of the Robert H. Meyer Memorial State Beaches.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Beach Website:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.parks.ca.gov\/?page_id=633\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Robert H.

Santa Monica State Beach<\/h2>\n<p>This long two-mile stretch of sandy beach provides beachgoers with an eye-catching view of the Santa Monica mountains, but that isn&rsquo;t what keeps people coming back. The big attraction at the Santa Monica beach is the famous Santa Monica Pier. The pier is nearly three city blocks long and features plenty of places to get good food and ride carnival rides. The pier is also a fun place to skate. You can also enjoy walking, running, or biking along The Strand, a 22-mile path that runs alongside many of the South Bay beaches.<\/p>\n<p>It&rsquo;s especially fun to visit the pier during the Fourth of July weekend, when you can enjoy a parade and fireworks show. The atmosphere at the Santa Monica Pier and this Santa Monica beach make them the perfect destination for families and groups of close friends to spend a day together.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Beach Website: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smgov.net\/Departments\/CCS\/content.aspx?id=53687097577\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Santa Monica State Beach<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Best Suited For: Families and friends<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<html><body><div id=\"2_in_post\">\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/www.neighbor.com\/host\" onclick=\"rudderanalytics.track('press editorial cta button', {location: 'second in post', version: '2.0'}, () =&gt; { console.log('track call'); });\">\r\n  <div class=\"second-in-post-cta\">\r\n    <section>\r\n      <div class=\"service-option\">\r\n        <h2 id=\"earn-1000s-per-year-with-your-unused-space\">Earn $1,000s per year with your unused space<\/h2>\r\n        <button>Become a Neighbor host<\/button>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/section>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/a>\n  <\/div><\/body><\/html><h2 id=\"5-malibu-surfrider-beach\">5.

But if you are a fan of surf movies from the 1950s and 1960s, then you&rsquo;ve certainly seen it. This beach lives up to its name and its movie reputation &mdash; it&rsquo;s a hot spot for surfers due to the excellent waves. The beach is usually packed with people looking to get out on the waves, so it&rsquo;s not the best choice for that romantic evening out or a leisurely stroll across the sand. But if surfing is your thing, then Malibu Surfrider Beach is the best of the Los Angeles beaches. Fisherman will also find a home here, as it is the location of the famous Malibu pier.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Beach Website: <a href=\"https:\/\/beaches.lacounty.gov\/malibu-surfrider-beach\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Malibu Surfrider Beach<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Best Suited For: Surfers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"6-rosies-dog-beach\">6. Rosie&rsquo;s Dog Beach<\/h2>\n<p>While there are plenty of dog-friendly parks in LA County, many of which made our nine best parks in Los Angeles list, there are very few popular beaches that allow man&rsquo;s best friend. We opened with Leo Carrillo Beach, which allows dogs but requires them to be on a leash. Dog-lovers can rejoice because here&rsquo;s one beach where your dog can roam leash-free. The appropriately named Rosie&rsquo;s Dog Beach is a three-acre beach that is usually coned off to mark where dogs are allowed to be. As with any dog-friendly area, be sure to read the posted rules when you go to this beach.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Beach Website:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.californiabeaches.com\/beach\/granada-beach-rosies-dog-beach\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rosie&rsquo;s Dog Beach<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Best Suited For: Dog lovers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote>\n<h4 id=\"pro-tip-3\">Pro Tip:<\/h4>\n<p>If there are no cones marking the dog-safe area, be sure to stay between Roycroft and Argonne Avenues.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2 id=\"7-manhattan-beach\">7. Manhattan Beach<\/h2>\n<p>As well as being one of the many wonderful Los Angeles beaches for surfing and body surfing, Manhattan beach is well known for its beach volleyball courts. Visitors to the beach also like to enjoy the aquarium that is located near the pier. When you visit the aquarium, you will see many sea creatures on display and educational exhibits that will help you better understand marine life. There&rsquo;s even a touch pool where you can reach out and touch some of the sea life.<\/p>\n<p>You can also head to the nearby Redondo Beach, which offers great scuba diving, to explore even more of southern Santa Monica Bay. If you liked walking, running, or biking along The Strand near Santa Monica Pier, you can jump back on the path here.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Beach Website:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/beaches.lacounty.gov\/manhattan-beach\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Manhattan Beach<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Best Suited For: Beach volleyball players and sea life fans<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote>\n<h4 id=\"pro-tip-4\">Pro Tip:<\/h4>\n<p>Surfing in the area is limited to the south side of the pier, while bodyboarding is limited to the north side.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2 id=\"8-zuma-beach\">8. Zuma Beach<\/h2>\n<p>While Surfrider Beach is the go-to spot for surfers in LA County, Zuma Beach (located just past it) is one of the best beaches for boogie boarders. You&rsquo;ll find ample parking here. The clean, wide beach can hold a lot of people, which is good because it is a popular location amongst the locals. The Pacific Ocean is a little colder here than some of the other Los Angeles beaches, but it&rsquo;s still plenty comfortable enough to have some fun in. If you don&rsquo;t like the cold, the beach is perfect for sunbathing. You&rsquo;ll also find convenient restrooms and showers that make your trip easier.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Beach Website:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/beaches.lacounty.gov\/zuma-beach\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Zuma Beach<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Best Suited For: Boogie boarders<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote>\n<h4 id=\"pro-tip-5\">Pro Tip:<\/h4>\n<p>There is paid parking at the beach, but you can park for free nearby on PCH and Westward Beach Road.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2 id=\"9-abalone-cove-ecological-reserve\">9. Abalone Cove Ecological Reserve<\/h2>\n<p>Surfers and traditional beachgoers might not find this destination particularly compelling. But if you are a fan of nature and love to enjoy a good hike now and again, you&rsquo;ll love the Abalone Cove Ecological Reserve. We&rsquo;ve actually cheated a bit here because the reserve is home to two beautiful beaches: Abalone Cove and Sacred Cove. Both will require a bit of a rocky trek to get to, so like El Matador State Beach, be sure to bring your shoes with you. Also, make sure they are a good pair of hiking shoes, as there are a lot of trails to explore in this area. While not a part of the preserve, there are restrooms and picnic areas nearby that will make your day out more convenient.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Beach Website: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rpvca.gov\/Facilities\/Facility\/Details\/Abalone-Cove-Ecological-Reserve-19\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Abalone Cove Ecological Reserve<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Best Suited For: Hikers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Hopefully, this list has given you a nice place to start exploring some of the best popular beaches that Los Angeles has to offer. Keep in mind that this is not a complete list &mdash; LA beaches are abundant, and you may find dozens of California beaches that you love.
