Torrance Beach

Highlight • Beach

Torrance Beach lies between Redondo Beach and Malaga Cove. The region shared by Torrance and Redondo Beaches is often called “RAT Beach” (short for “Right After Torrance” Beach or “Redondo and Torrance Beach”). This beautiful, soft sand beach has 40 acres of beach and is at the foot of cliffs which extend to the Palos Verdes Peninsula.
There restrooms, a concession stand, showers, bike path, beach wheelchairs, and volleyball nets. Torrance Beach is great for swimming, fishing, scuba and skin diving, and surfing.

Bluff Cove

Highlight • Beach

As you ride along Palos Verdes Drive West, look down into Bluff Cove, a scenic rocky cove popular with local surfers, scuba divers, and snorkelers braveing the shoreline. A hiking trail descends to Bluff Cove Beach, with a steeper trail leading to Flat Rock Point, where you can explore tide pools at low tide. Walking south beyond the cove takes you into Palos Verdes Estate Shoreline Preserve, continuing to Palos Verdes Point and the rusted remains of a shipwreck along the Shipwreck Hiking Trail.

Point Vicente Lighthouse

Highlight • Monument

This lighthouse is still in operation and belongs to the National Registry of Historic Sites. Unfortunately, most days, access to the grounds and the lighthouse is restricted as it's used by the Coast Guard. However, you can still get a pretty good view from this point since the tower is 67 feet tall.

After WWII the ceaseless rotation of the beam became a source of annoyance for nearby residents and a potential danger for drivers along Palos Verdes Drive. In response, caretakers took action by applying a layer of white paint to the inner windows facing inland, effectively eliminating the beacon's flash from reaching the windows of neighboring houses. It was during this time that the enigmatic figure known as the "Lady of the Light" first made an appearance. In the subdued glow seeping through the painted windows, a few observers caught glimpses of a tall serene woman, in flowing gown pacing slowly the tower's walkway.

This spot is great overlook for the Pelican Cove Beach. It is also where the beach access trail begins if you'd like to go check out the water up close.
