A Westside locale, the population was 8,866 at the 2010 census. Fisherman's Village offers a view of Marina del Rey's dominant feature, the Marina, the world's largest man-made small craft harbor with eight basins having a capacity for 5,300 boats and is home port to approximately 6,500 boats. The harbor, the Los Angeles Times said in 1997, is "perhaps the county's most valuable resource".

But in a good way, the traffic can be quite hectic and in the summertime the sun can feel like its soaking all the moisture out of you, but Hollywood is a place you must see in your lifetime because its got great attractions and things to do with kids all ages.

Captain John has been driving boats since he was a teenager and has been fishing locally in LA for decades! The most rewarding part of running fishing charters is seeing someone catch one of their very first fish! I see the joy and elation on their face, and it allows me to relive the moment when I caught my first fish. I can't put a price on that experience, and I truly love sharing my passion with others!

Erik and JP were absolutely wonderful! They were so full of knowledge and so personable. They answered any questions we had while providing historical insight of LA. They’re also HILARIOUS and so outgoing. I loved the views and appreciated their suggestions in regards to making the most out of our trip! The hike wasn’t as hard as I thought - the tour guides are willing to stop and give us time to take a breath or drink water. Also, they make for great photographers!! A must go with Erik and JP!

My friends and I booked this tour for our first trip to California & it completely exceeded our expectations! We are so thankful to Jason for being the best guide the Angeles Forest has ever seen. This tour is a must-do if you appreciate nature. The mountain views were gorgeous & Jason showed us the most exclusive waterfall spot. Our only regret was not booking another tour with LifeRush Adventures. Next time we visit California, we're definitely exploring with Jason & LifeRush again!

The driver was very kind and accommodating for a person with a wheelchair. He always helped and ensured that the bus was parked in a safe location for the passengers to disembark, including those with special needs. He never complained about the extra work required loading and unloading the wheelchair or the extra time needed to assist the passenger to/from the bus. He was also very knowledgeable about the area and the sites he was taking us to. His driving was excellent. As a professional driver myself, I am always a little more critical of other drivers. He was safe, courteous and smooth with his driving, acceleration and stopping. I felt comfortable and safe the entire time!

We went on the one day pass. Hope on and off as much as you wanted. Great way to see where everything is. Using the App you can see where the buses are. Only down side is that not all the pick up points are as well marked as they could be.
