Overview

Venice Beach is one of Los Angeles’s most eccentric and famous beachfronts, with the Ocean Front Walk boardwalk’s street performers, shops and vendors, Muscle Beach, the skate plaza and beach volleyball courts. A fishing pier, a bike path and a surf break by the breakwater add to the scene, and millions visit each year.
