| South Bay |
|
South of Venice, Marina del Rey and the declining resort town of Playa del Rey, the coast is dominated by the runways of LAX and the oil refineries of El Segundo. Beyond here begins the eight-mile coastal strip of the quieter, more suburban and less pretentious South Bay beach towns: Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach and Redondo Beach. Each has a beckoning strip of white sand, and Manhattan and Hermosa especially are well equipped for surfing and beach sports. They’re also well connected by regular buses to downtown LA. To the south are Long Beach and Santa Catalina Island. |

| SAN PEDRO | |
| San Pedro is the center of activity for the Port of Los Angeles, the world's largest man-made harbor and one of the busiest ports in the world. The city is also home to Cabrillo Marine Aquarium, the Los Angeles Maritime Museum, and the waterfront Ports O'Call Village.
REDONDO BEACH |
|
| A bustling center of Los Angeles County's South Bay beaches, seaside Redondo Beach is part of the legendary surf culture nurtured by the consistently good waves on this part of the coast. The busy beachside walkway known as the Esplanade runs along the foot of Fisherman's Wharf, the large municipal pier.
