Venice Beach

A favourite place to people watch, this beloved boardwalk is full of eccentric clientele—think skateboarders, body builders and street musicians.

First modeled after its namesake city in Italy, Venice Beach now feels distinctly Californian. Most famous for its “Muscle Beach,” a stretch of sand that’s accented with an outdoor gym, there’s so much to see and do in this artsy beachside neighborhood.
About a 10-minute drive from Venice Beach lies Santa Monica, home to the soft sands of “State Beach,” the longest bike path in the world and its famous pier, complete with a 27-metre high Ferris wheel.
