It's been a while since I visited a few of the South Bay LA county beaches, so I decided to drive up to three of the state beaches I grew up going to during my childhood: Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, and Redondo Beach. These beaches all border each other and are different in their own way. Since summer is still here, I took advantage of my day off and drove up to these beaches starting with Manhattan Beach. Manhattan Beach is a popular tourist beach known for it's beautiful pier, surfing, shops, restaurants, and night life. It's also lively and the pier design is slightly reminiscent to that of Huntington Beach's in OC , but less crowded.
Hermosa Beach on the other hand, has more of a mellow vibe and it's directly in between Manhattan and Redondo Beach. It's also very well known for surfing but the pier and beach is much smaller...it's still a very beautiful laid-back/ artsy beach community!
Last but not least is Redondo Beach. Redondo is definitely a lively community with a pier filled with many shops, restaurants, and live music in the summer. It's very popular among tourists and many shows and movies have also been filmed there. This pier has got to be my favorite though (aka waterfront), starting with the horseshoe shape pier design, it's very unique and different from any other Cali beach, which I love! By the end of the day I ended up in Redondo Beach just in time to watch the sunset over ice cream.
Gotta love those SoCal summers! ;)
Happy weekend loves!
