Hermosa Beach has almost 2 miles of ocean frontage with 94 acres of public beach and is one of the most popular beaches in Los Angeles County due to the excellent surf, good swimming areas, and the various volleyball nets along the sand.

The city-owned beach runs along the Santa Monica Bay before running into King Harbor in Redondo Beach.

Metered street parking is available and amenities include restrooms, nearby restaurants, showers, and playground equipment.

Volleyball tournaments and surf festivals also take place throughout the year for visitors and residents to enjoy.
