A bay bordered by a crescent-shaped shore between Malibu and Los Angeles, the mainland of Santa Monica Bay is lined with high-end property. Many piers and docks offer fishing and parking for private vessels. Some of the larger piers, such as Santa Monica Pier and Marina Del Rey, are full of entertainment, shopping, and restaurants. A fishing or boat tour helps you appreciate the California coast. Adrenaline-pumping water activities are also available.

Luego de la locura visual que es Venice beach esta playa es un bálsamo para recorrer tranquilo junto al mar, ojo que noviembre es temporada baja, no sabria decir como es en pleno verano. more »
