Hermosa Beach, Los Angeles

Back in December, I went to LA for a week, I know, not enough time to travel that far, but I’ve been there a few times as I have family and friends there. I did a whistlestop tour of some of the beachside towns and here’s one of them I stopped in.

Hermosa Beach is a lovely beachside town located south of Los Angeles, there is lots to see! Surfing is important here as there’s a statue dedicated to surfers before the pier.

There’s a lovely pier to meander down and take in the sights of the skyline and those paddle-boarding and in the sea. There’s beach volleyball and plenty of space to have some me time and to soak some rays!

When we were there , Warner Bros were shooting a film there, how more Californian could you get. I didn’t spot any celebrities but exciting all the same.

There’s ample of independent shops to browse in and places to have coffee and the odd libation if you are inclined to!

I went to a Mexican café on Pier Avenue and had a wonderful breakfast burrito and English breakfast tea. The guys running it were so fun and charismatic. We were singing “All the Single Ladies” by Beyonce with them.
