If you live in DTLA, you may be used to all the hustle and bustle of the city. Some days, you just want to spend time at the beach. After all, you’re in Southern California of all places.

The good news is that you don’t have to travel too far to get to the beach. We’ll provide you with a list of the top three beaches that you can go to from downtown Los Angeles. You might like one or even all of them - depending on your personal preferences and factors. Let’s take a look at what they are right now.

1. Santa Monica Beach

We begin our list with this legendary beach that is a mere 16 miles away from many DTLA apartments for rent. One of the places that stand out is the iconic Santa Monica Pier and the Pacific Wheel. If you’re looking for a place where you can have fun, eat delicious food, and enjoy the day - what better place than here?

If you’re a sucker for sunsets, we may be remiss if we didn’t mention this being the best place to watch them. Definitely worth snapping a photo and posting it on the socials.

2. Venice Beach

It’s the home of the world famous Muscle Beach gym where Arnold Schwarzengger and others worked out. Venice Beach also happens to be the place where you’ll find a rich arts culture while enjoying the sand, sea, and sun. You can ride a bike or put on a pair of rollerblades along the Ocean Front Walk.

It’s one of the most iconic beaches in Southern California. And it’s almost the same distance away from Santa Monica Beach. They’re actually not that far apart, so you could hit both of those beaches all in the same day if you wanted to.

3. Zuma Beach

If you’re looking for something a bit more farther out of the way, Zuma Beach may be the place. This beach is located about 36 miles away from Downtown Los Angeles. So if you’re looking to get farther away from the city (and we won’t blame you), you might want to check this place out.

This beach is located close to El Matador State Beach and the Santa Monica Mountains. If you like surfing, this might be a place where you can put your skills to the test or even catch a few good waves.
