Best Thing to do in LA? Hit the Beach

It’s no secret that a favorite activity in Los Angeles is hitting the beach. Dockweiler Beach in Playa del Rey is great for a workout. The paths are less populated, and it’s easier to avoid the tourist crowds. Love to drink wine by the ocean? Topanga State Beach is located right across from the Rosenthal Winery. You can take an underground tunnel right up to the grape vines. Abalone Cove Beach is a great place to catch a tide pool. Want to take the dog for a leash free, ocean romping run? Huntington Dog Beach is one of the few beaches in LA that don’t require a leash. The beach is maintained by a non-profit that keeps the beach safe and clean for animals.
