This famous beach is regarded as a historic centre of creative life for the beat poets and artists of the mid-20th century, including Lawrence Lipton and Saul White.

Rent a bicycle and ride from Washington Square to Santa Monica Pier along the famous Venice Beach Bicycle Path. Learn to surf from a qualified surfing instructor on Santa Monica State Beach. This remarkable beach covers about 245 acres (100 hectares) of sand along the Pacific Ocean.
