Things to do in Los Angeles, California (CA): The Best Sights & Landmarks

September 8, 2021 Alida England

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.

Point Fermin Park

Reviewed By Mazuza2 - Camillus, United States

I was really blown away by this little park. It's a short distance from the Korean, American Friendship bell. You can see the park in under an hour. The ocean vistas are amazing. I would like to see a sunset here. There are high cliffs that give you great shoreline views and you can see large ships entering and leaving the harbor in San Pedro. I would imagine at the right times there are whales and porpoises visible from the heights. There is a beautiful old lighthouse on the point. There is free parking, Places to picnic and rest rooms available. This is well worth a stop if you are in San Pedro.

Reviewed By AlWatt - West Tisbury, United States

We parked at Point Fermin Park & fortunately saw some people hop the concrete fence & shimmy under the barrier to walk out to the cliff. The views were incredible! WARNING: Many people have been severely hurt & died climbing down the cliff. Wear hiking shoes. Be careful!
