The Day Shift

In Rancho Palos Verdes, that beautiful blue ocean isn't just for looking at. The city is home to a beautiful beach park, Abalone Cove Shoreline. There isn't any sand to stretch out on here as this is a rocky shoreline. There is plenty of sunshine to enjoy though, so bring a chair or a blanket and get comfy. If you’d rather explore the beach, go for it. You’re in for a treat. The rocky topography makes this one of the best beaches in the area for tide pool exploration. Fish, sea stars, sea cucumbers, and mollusks (though not usually abalone), wash up into these rocky pools during the high tide and become stranded as the water recedes. This is an incredible way for visitors to examine life under the sea without getting wet.

Renters who'd like an even more natural experience can follow the dolphins out to Catalina Island. This island is 22 miles away from the mainland and makes for the perfect weekend getaway. Renters from Rancho Palos Verdes can pamper themselves in this resort town. Enjoy Catalina by hiking into the backcountry or and swimming and snorkeling off the island's rocky shores.

A quick drive will bring renters from Rancho Palos Verdes into Long Beach (it's even close enough to catch a cab back home after a night of raucous fun). In Long Beach, there are plenty of bars, dance clubs, and live music venues to enjoy. If a refined evening is more to your liking, there are also a number of theaters, wine bars, and even a few cigar and hookah lounges (the only public places where you're allowed to smoke indoors in California). If you'd like to rub elbows with the rich and famous, a longer drive will take you up to Santa Monica and Hollywood. The party often goes on until morning in these cities, so be sure to head out geared up for a wild night of fun.
