Tips

🕊️ 𝑻𝒓𝒂𝒗𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒓

October 25, 2024

Dockweiler State Beach has 3.7 miles of ocean frontage and 288 acres of beach. Amenities include restrooms, showers, picnic facilities, fire rings, and volleyball nets. It's the only beach on LA Bay allowing fires, BBQ, and has many trash bins.
The Marvin Braude Bike Trail, also known as the beach bike path, is readily accessible, which many visitors use for roller-blading, jogging, and of course, bicycling.
Jetties at the north end of the beach provide ideal fishing opportunities. Shore fishing is also popular. The beach is home to a fenced enclosure for the western snowy plover, a federally protected shore bird.
The beach is quite expansive with lots of sand. In the summer it can get quite busy, especially towards the evening when everyone is trying to gather around one of the various fire rings. The only drawback here is its proximity to Los Angeles International Airport; the noise from jets taking off can get quite loud for some. The nearby parking lots have over 1,200 spaces and a Recreational Vehicle Park with 118 full hook-up spaces. Nearby is the Dockweiler Youth Center, which offers a multi-purpose room and terrace, youth camps, and community programs.
Entrance is $7 for cars, free for bikers and pedestrians.
