Hollywood beckons to tourists who long for a brush with Tinseltown glamor. Tour movie studios, slip your hands into the famous prints at the TCL Chinese Theatre, or indulge in a celeb sighting at one of LA’s white-hot nightspots. Spot your favorite star while shopping at The Grove, or forget all about the famous eye candy as you take in the iconic artwork at The Getty Center. For a different type of star-gazing, peek through the telescopes at the Griffith Observatory.

Great place to go hiking on any of the several scenic trails that surround the lake.
Only went here as our teenage son wanted to see the FaZe house where professional gamers live. It is right next to the reservoir. Glad he made us make the trip. This is a hidden gem. We were the only ones there mid week but apparently gets crowded with 2000+ people in weekend. The was the closest and clearest view of the Hollywood sign (much closer than Griffith) and a relax hiking destination. Super friendly ranger just happened to be on hand and was full of info. He pointed out some celebrity houses, explained history of the reservoir and some quirky stories, like when it was closed so that President Clinton could jog the trails.

I have never been here and I have lived in Orange County for 33 years. It was a beautiful drive. My husband loves to drive and her really enjoyed all of the switchbacks. I was happy to just be a passenger as if I was the driver I would not have appreciated all of the spectacular scenery along the way. Due to time constraints, we didn't go all the way to Wrightwood (another day when we have more time!) Highly recommend as you feel you are so far detached form civilization, but in reality only a hop skip and a jump from the greater LA area. Bathrooms and picnic areas were open and there were quite a few people gathered at those areas. We wanted to isolate so did not stop there. Tons of hiking and a few overnight camp areas up in the Angeles National forest as well for those more adventurous.

This is one of the less crowded beaches between Venice and Malibu and certainly one of the best. It's the Pacific as you imagined it, with level white sand and clear views to the horizon. Parking seems to be the issue with many visitors, but ignore them. Parking is nine bucks - this is California - but it puts you right on the beach, steps from the sand, while others are looking for free on-street parking and end up carrying tons of gear for several city blocks. Too much waster time and effort!

We really enjoyed our afternoon exploring the tidepools and running from the waves. There are two parts of the beach there's the rocky shoreline where you can access the tide pools at low tide and if you'd like to climb down some rocks there is a sandy beach as well. You do need to pay for parking and the cost of parking depends on the time of day. The parking kiosks do take credit cards. If you are willing to hike down the hill then you can park for free on the street. The beach area is very exposed with very little shade so if you are planning to spend the day here you may want to bring a canopy or umbrella. There are also not a lot of services so you'll want to pack in/pack out. Unfortunately this is not a nature preserve area and there are those who will come through the tidepools picking up animals and killing as bait or collecting them. In the tidepools there are some deeper areas and kids will be able to snorkel around. It's not super deep but it is deep enough that you can swim around a little bit. When we were there there was a lifeguard on duty. I'd suggest that you bring water shoes for the tidepools and the rocky beach in general. And please remember to clean up after yourselves!! There was quite a bit of trash and beach toys around, hopefully we can protect and preserve this beautiful place. It's a local gem!

Casual single track hike with ocean views. This is a family friendly hike and right off the PCH. We took a loop by heading up from Temescal Ridge Trail and came down the Temescal Canyon Trail. The trail is mostly exposed so be sure to wear sunblock and bring enough water! There is some shade, but not a ton. The views are really pretty, as you can see the vast expanse of blue ocean as well as the skylines of Century City and DTLA. There is a small “waterfall” that’s more like a brook, but there were some families eating lunch there. There are signs saying that dogs aren’t allowed but we saw people flouting that. It’s open during covid and I’m glad to see that most people wore masks. It’s $12 to park and you can pay via credit card. Otherwise, you can try to find street parking on Temescal Canyon Rd (but be sure to read the street signs! Parking tickets in Malibu are not cheap). The park is also a good spot to throw a frisbee or take a leisurely walk.
