Love the fire pits! If you want one on a summer Friday, get there by 3pm, or Saturday get there by noon to grab one. If you can't get there early, bring a bunch of fire wood and someone with very little wood will allow your group to join their group. There is something special about a bonfire on the beach at sunset...enjoy!!

Kids and I love this beach - there is always plenty of parking and quick access to the beach, Cafe, showers and restrooms from the parking lot. Love the friendly distance to everything. So it makes it easy on me with my two little ones. They love the water and I love the breeze and watching the waves crashing and sunsets. The best part of this beach is that it's never crowded.

This is a beautiful beach that I don’t think talked about as much as other beaches in Los Angeles. I really did enjoy the time on the beach. The sand was super hot though lol. But overall this beach is very lovely and not as crowded as Santa Monica or Venice beach. Check out more of my post on Instagram: nancyuche_

A fantastic beach that is mostly secluded so you feel like it’s private. Lots of beautiful homes along the shore and plenty of volleyball nets, sand dunes and public bathrooms.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Questions & Answers

Do you pay for parking at 8pm?

Isaias Martinez | Dec 17, 2020
William Garcia | Dec 18, 2020

It's never free welcome to LA. Unless you have a valid handicap placard, then it's free on WEEKDAYS ONLY if it's a holiday you will need to pay. Cars under 20ft Monday - Friday $9 Saturday, Sunday and LA County holidays $13 Cars over 20ft double the rate No cars over 40ft No in and out privilege every time you enter the lot with your car you will have to pay. No drop off or pick ups in the lots you will need to make a u-turn and wait by the exit

Celene, according to their website, "Dogs are allowed at Dockweiler Beach RV Park, but they must be kept on a leash (6' max length) when outside your vehicle. Proof of rabies inoculation and a valid license are required for all dogs. Aggressive dogs will be removed and banned from the park.". So, yes, dogs are allowed.

Yes opened from 6 a.m to 10 p.m. Better to go to my spot by the park and docks that are in construction. THE END OF THE LINE AND YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE TO PAY FOR PARKING. HOPEFULLY YOU FIND MY SPOT WHERE I'VE BEEN GOING SINCE MY 20'S. IT'S THE BEST SPOT OF THE MARINA. LORD WILLING YOU'LL FIND IT. GOOD WHEN YOU NEED TO GET AWAY AND CLEAR YOUR MIND, FIND INSPIRATION ETC. 🛐✝️🔝🕊💜

Do you have fire pits?

David Ramirez | Dec 18, 2018
Jose “Lil JOE” ZAVALA | Dec 19, 2018

Yes they do. But I would suggest arriving super early, AM early, just to find a fire pit. Weekends, holidays, & summertime is the most demanding. So, if you live close by plan on reserving a spot early. Then make your way back in the evening
