Los Angeles county boasts of more than 30 miles of beaches that are great places to picnic and sunbathe. The Zuma Beach County Park is one of the largest beach parks in Los Angeles County with plenty of volleyball courts, playgrounds, lifeguards, and restrooms as well. On a warmer weekend, you can expect to find the beach jam-packed with sunbathers. For many, there is no place like Malibu Lagoon State beach. The pretty, white-sand beach is also teeming with marine life and shorebirds. You can relax and enjoy the mild waves that hit the shore throughout the day.

You can let the ‘good times roll’ at Surfrider Beach, where the best waves roll ashore and make it a great surfing spot. You can expect to find plenty of surfers in the area, so if you are looking for some peace and quiet you may want to head elsewhere. Sunbathers love Hermosa Beach in Southern California. There are plenty of restrooms, volleyball courts, and a fishing pier as well. Apart from sunbathing, this is a great place for surfing too. Don’t forget to head to Redondo State Beach which is popular with joggers, bicyclists, and surfers as well. The family would love a visit to Santa Monica State Beach with lots of cafes, restrooms, and plenty of room to skate along the pier.
