Los Angeles County Beaches: Top Picks for Summer Activities

Los Angeles County Beaches: Top Picks for Summer Activities

Los Angeles County offers a diverse array of beaches, each catering to different preferences and activities. From the firepits of Dockweiler State Beach to the rocky tide pools of Bluff Cove in Palos Verdes Estates, there’s something for everyone. While some beaches like Santa Monica State Beach face water quality challenges near the pier, others, such as Bluff Cove, boast pristine waters but are less accessible due to steep trails and limited parking. Dockweiler State Beach is particularly popular for its 80 free firepits, ideal for bonfires and marshmallow roasting. Accessibility varies, with some beaches offering ADA-compliant features like wheelchairs, while others remain challenging to navigate. Parking fees also differ by location and season, ranging from $6 to $15. According to Heal the Bay, water quality along the Los Angeles coast has improved since early 2025, making most beaches safe for recreational use.

Mammoth Mountain Extends Ski Season Due to Late-Season Snowfall

Mammoth Mountain Extends Ski Season Due to Late-Season Snowfall

Mammoth Mountain has announced an extension of its ski season through June 7, following significant snowfall and cooler temperatures. The resort, which opened on November 20, has received 293 inches of snow this season, slightly more than last year's 286 inches. Recent weather conditions, including a 'May Gray' pattern, have brought additional snowfall and lower temperatures, prompting the decision to keep the resort open longer. Three chairlifts, including the Broadway Express, Face Lift Express, and Chair 23, will remain operational, along with over 25 hiking trails. However, no beginner terrain is currently available. The resort's elevation allows for a longer ski season compared to other Southern California resorts, which have already closed for the season.
