If you’re visiting Los Angeles on holiday, chances are you’re trying to see all the neighborhoods in one go and Venice is just a small (yet amazing) part of this expansive city.
I know first-hand that there’s so much to experience in this quirky beach town, but luckily the best parts can all be explored in a day, granted you’re equipped with some caffeine and good walking shoes.
I will definitely recommended this place for everyone

Memorable trip to Venice Beach
Ambiance is great! A great beach to visit during summers. There are all kinds of amenities at the various shops along the boardwalk, including surfboard, bicycle, and Segway rentals. If you're so inclined, Muscle Beach (an outdoor gym) is free. There's tons of food around—we recommend the Sidewalk Cafe, which has ample seating, good food at a reasonable price. Also Venice Beach has some nice sand that you can put down a blanket on and gaze out into the Pacific. Because it has a wide coastline, and it's a populous area, it's a famous jogging spot for barefoot running as well.

One of the beaches of life, Venice Beach, California, USA
[Venice Beach]
1800 Ocean Front Walk Venice, CA 90291 United States
✨ Venice Beach is one of the beaches of my life! There's a piano in the ocean and it's a place where musical geniuses play every once in a while. There were young people riding boards, the streets were filled with all kinds of art and music, and there were people freely doing legal drugs. (It was a little scary, but) I guess the reason I like this place is because I'm still in my 20s and have a youthful energy, right? ♡

Sunsets + Rooftop Bars in Venice Beach 🌅
📍Located right by Venice Beach is Hotel Erwin. Once you go up 7 floors, you reach the beautiful rooftop bar called High Rooftop Lounge.
If you’re staying in Venice, near Los Angeles, you want to put this on your bucket list for its gorgeous 360 views. 🌴
You have the absolute nicest view of the ocean and if you look to your left, you’ll see a fantastic view of all of the buildings.
The two drinks I ordered were delicious! 🍹 The Lavender Sunset and the Godzilla Mule. 10/10!
Tip: Bring a warm jacket if you come for sunset because once the sun goes down, the ocean breeze may get you a bit chilly.

Venice Beach, Los Angeles
Venice beach is walk away from famous Santa Monica Pier. It has canals like Venice and area surrounding looks pretty and gorgeous. Houses, property are very beautiful. Beach is clean and less people as compared to Santa Monica. You can nicely relax from the high speed life of Los Angeles. #beach #venice #losangeles #california #relaxation #holiday #travellocal #touristattraction #musttryseafood

Hot guys on the Beach
I went to Venice beach in Los Angeles in Summer 2024. Would recommend this beach for a chill hangout. You can walk around with a lot of food choices and see a lot of hot guys as they have a lot of recreation places like the famous beach front gym and skateboard pool. The only down side is the public toilet there are not decent so please find the toilet before your visit. ❤️

Venice Beach, you have my heart! This SoCal gem is a treasure trove of sun-kissed memories. I strolled along the vibrant boardwalk, soaking up the eclectic atmosphere, and relished the mouthwatering eats. The beach itself was a haven for people-watching, volleyball, and sun-worshipping.

Its laid-back California vibe is the perfect antidote to a busy life. I left feeling serene, sun-kissed, and already planning my next visit!

Exploring the Venice Canals of America in LA 🇺🇸
Los Angeles is the perfect summer destination ~ save this guide for your next trip to the USA! ☀️🇺🇸
The Venice Canals are located very close to Venice Beach in LA and are probably one of the most unique things to see in the city. They’re situated just off 25th Street in Venice Beach and it’s so easy to walk by without realising they are right there! The area is primarily a residential neighbourhood and there are paths and bridges along the canals that allow you to explore on foot. 🛶
The canals date back to 1905 when several miles of waterways were dug out to create a beach resort town, but then unfortunately filled back in around 1924 when more roads were needed in the area.

Venice Beach
#losangeles
Venice Beach's iconic boardwalk pulsates with a lively mix of street performers, eclectic shops, and vibrant murals, creating a sensory-rich experience. The historic Muscle Beach, a hub for bodybuilders and fitness enthusiasts, and the picturesque Venice Canals add to the unique charm of this beachside destination. Unfortunately this beach facing challenges such as homelessness, crime, and issues related to street vending, impacting the overall safety and cleanliness of certain areas.
Anything travels
Venice Beach California
The beach was amazing with the tall palm trees, I spent a full day here and it was really relaxing.
It was the last day in LA and my flight got cancelled (Yes, Lynx) so after paying another 5.5k HKD on a ticket to Toronto I had to let out my stress at Venice Beach and it was amazing!
The beach was not the cleanest but not dirty either and it’s sort of “winter” here so it doesn’t matter that much I just took a stroll around.
Ate some fish tacos at a resto and it was 10/10

The Van Gogh Brothers: A Complex Relationship
I watched a documentary about Van Gogh starring Benedict Cumberbatch and was perplexed. Why does no one see this hypocrisy? Why does everyone think that there was great love between the brothers?
I don’t know, it’s obvious to me that Theo didn’t sell Van Gogh paintings on purpose, being a successful (!) art dealer who got rich in this business, according to his friends, “he, like no one else, felt the trends of fashion and art, absolutely guessing which painting would become a piece of art."
From Vincent, he received hundreds of paintings. And not one "managed" to sell, but kept everything. He did not visit his sick and lonely brother in a psychiatric clinic, and he also demanded a picture a week as payment for bills and art supplies. And when Vincent got worse and painted a picture a day, Theo took them too. Doesn't sound like a great benefactor.
Even Vincent himself wrote to him in letters and asked why Theo did not even try to sell his paintings. All in all, Van Gogh was poor as a church mouse and trusted his brother all his artworks to sell. To no avail.
All in all, I highly recommend this documentary. I would be interested in discussing it with you! Found this modern interpretation of Starry Night at Venice Beach.

Venice Beach in LA offers an amazing sunset view. Here you can enjoy cool breeze air and feel the quietness the beach has to offer. You can also walk along the shore with your friends or just by yourself. Either way I’m sure you will enjoy your time here. #wintergetaway
