Tucked between Los Angeles’ Venice Beach and El Segundo’s Dockweiler Beach, Playa Del Rey Beach is a favorite of Los Angeles locals. Quaint and picturesque, Playa del Rey is the perfect spot for a restful day at the beach.
Only 30 minutes from the hustle and bustle of Downtown Los Angeles, Playa del Rey feels worlds away. With its undeveloped beachfront and quaint small-town setting, Playa del Rey is incredibly quiet. Although small, the beach itself is one of LA’s best. Its sand is white, soft, thick, and free of the trash that comes with large crowds. The water is turquoise and crystal clear, making the beach perfect for swimming, fishing, paddle-boarding, snorkeling, surfing, and sailing. From its scenic walking paths and picnic tables, beachgoers have views of lush sea-grape trees, the ocean, and the Los Angeles skyline.
