LA County Beaches & Harbors.
To sound like a local, drop the "beach" from its name and call it Zuma, a go-to spot for LA residents and visitors alike. The 1.8 miles of beach frontage are just around the corner from Point Dume State Beach, so you can easily access the hiking trails of the state park from Zuma as well. This south-facing beach attracts many visitors on summer weekends but is relatively quiet during the week..
If you're into playing beach volleyball, make sure to bring a ball with you since nets are set up along the stretch of beach for casual games with friends..
The shallow water and gently sloping sand make it a good place for swimming and body surfing most of the time, but keep an eye out for posted flags that signify safe swimming areas. Zuma is known for occasional dangerous riptides and rough surf, although lifeguards are on duty in the summer months to monitor conditions..
There are eight paid parking lots around Zuma Beach with nearly 2,000 parking spots, although you can park for free if you find an open place along the side of Highway 1..
