All this sunshine has us feeling back to our usual selves again! With the glorious California weather back, it only felt right to fire out some recommendations on our favorite Los Angeles beaches. Whether you're seeking a place to hit the surf, soak up the sun, simply unwind by the sea, or maybe even all of the above, here are some of the the beaches that we think give Los Angeles a bit of it’s identity:

Leo Carrillo State Park offers a pristine coastline with expansive sandy beaches, tide pools, and sea caves. It's a fantastic spot for swimming, sunbathing, and exploring the coastal trails. You may even spot dolphins or sea lions frolicking in the waves.

This beach exudes a laid-back coastal charm with its picturesque pier, upscale shops, and trendy restaurants. Enjoy a beachside bike ride, play beach volleyball on the public courts, or indulge in some surfing lessons. Whatever floats your boat (no pun intended)!

Embrace the funky vibes, street performers, and that iconic Muscle Beach. Venice Beach is an undeniable cultural hotspot and if you get too toasty on the sand, mozy over to the canals or Rose Avenue and explore.

Just around Point Dume you stumble upon Zuma with its wide shoreline and beautiful coastal views, it's an ideal spot for picnics, beach games, and sunbathing. The clear waters and South facing shoreline is perfect for all water enthusiasts.

For a more secluded and picturesque experience, El Matador State Beach is a hidden gem. Its rugged cliffs, natural rock formations, and stunning sunsets create a truly magical atmosphere. Take a leisurely stroll along the sandy coves and explore the tide pools teeming with marine life.

We know it’s a bit cliche but hey, it is indeed a classic spot located adjacent to the iconic Santa Monica Pier. This stretch of beach offers a vibrant atmosphere with a lively boardwalk, street performers, and an amusement park.

The crown jewel of Malibu's coastline. Apart from the never ending surge of crowds in the lineup, this iconic beach is a surfer's paradise. Located near the Malibu Pier, Surfrider Beach draws in wave riders from far and wide, all seeking that perfect ride. It also offers a stunning backdrop for sunbathers and beach enthusiasts. Surfrider is truly a place where the surf culture thrives…if you can get a parking spot.

Truly, the Los Angeles beach scene has got it all, from lively and crowded, to secluded and serene. So grab your towel, slather on that sunscreen, pack our Body Wash and Two in One for a post dip shower, and let's hit the beach.
