Outdoor Activities
Such a pretty park by the beach. They sometimes have yoga classes with the city at this park and is very tranquil.
Miramar Park
Cute, but has a lot of geese. There’s a swan boat ride which is fun, but it’s also a great big park to walk around in and hang out.
Polliwog Park
They have the best food and fresh produce! It’s by the beach so grab a bite to eat and a juice and walk over to enjoy
Riviera Village Farmers Market
The best eggs hands down. I only get my eggs from this farmers market and they have never let me down. Wilson park is huge and there are also a lot of food options to choose from as well as produce. Walk around, grab a but and find a bench. Can’t go ...
Torrance Certified Farmers' Market
You cannot get better scenery than this. It’s absolutely amazing. It’s a pretty standard hike for a good amount of time.
Malaga Cove
It’s pretty lengthy but well known. Come prepared but it’s a nice ambiance.
Redondo Beach Loop, California - 531 Reviews, Map
Nice beach, pretty clean. Good for relaxing and sunbathing. Water is okay, sometimes gets a lot of seaweed
TOPAZ BEACH - Updated June 2026 - 57 Photos
Bunch of things to do here. Go relax and then find some great food after you’re done! Plenty of bars as well if that’s your vibe
Hermosa Beach Pier
Huge beach, so plan where to meet the rest of your group ahead of time. Gets pretty crowded but is a fun relaxing time. There is an RV section, if that suits your needs.
Dockweiler Beach
Maybe don’t go into the water here, but the walk along the pier and pathway is very nice. The pier is famous so have fun and eat well! Lot of games to play.
Santa Monica State Beach
View is very nice of the ocean. The walk there is also nice and not too difficult.
Scenic Outlook - Vistapoint
Another great view of the ocean but you get a cool, curved nook as well! Super cool to see and great landscapes.
Bluff Cove - Palos Verdes Estates
Restaurants
Local, easy, delicious, and casual. Everything you need for great pizza and wings. Local fav here.
Pedones Pizza
More like a sports bar but their pizza was pretty good!
The Slice & Pint in El Segundo
Good food, considered a steakhouse. Gets pretty crowded but worth it.
