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.

The boardwalk is a colourful, liberating, accepting place that we fell head over heels in love with! A must visit for everyone who visits LA! Unlike mentioned in a review below, there is a great restaurant called The Sidewalk right on/in the middle of the boardwalk that we went to twice, it was perfect for people watching! There are so many little eateries on the little roads that lead up to the boardwalk to, just a few steps off the front and there are plenty of fast food outlets with great selections. The scooters are an absolute MUST, $1 to unlock and and just 15 cents per minute of use and you cam leave them anywhere! Since of the best fun we had all holiday. You do get an intermittent smell of cannabis but as cannabis users ourselves it doesnt bother us at all, although it's not as rife or as frequent as some are making out. And it just adds to the atmosphere, vibe and freedom of Venice!

No fancy rollercoaster or ferris wheel here, just a bunch of anglers and locals and few tourists taking in a fresh breeze of the Pacific Ocean. It’s a good spot to watch surfers catching the rolling waves and to look back across the Bay to Santa Monica if you made the 5km walk from there. You can park at North Venice public parking just 20m from the Pier.
