Venice City Beach
- Address: West of Pacific Ave., Venice, Los Angeles, CA
- Phone: 310/577-5700
Fodor's Review:
The surf and sand of Venice are fine, but the main attraction here is the boardwalk scene, which is a cosmos all its own -- with fire-eating street performers, vendors hawking everything from cheap sunglasses and aromatherapy oils, and bicep'ed gym rats lifting weights at legendary Muscle Beach. Go on Saturday or Sunday afternoon for the best people-watching experience. There are also swimming, fishing, surfing, basketball (it's the site of some of L.A.'s most hotly contested pickup games), racquetball, handball, and shuffleboard. You can rent a bike or some in-line skates and hit the Strand bike path.
