Torrance County Beach can be overlooked by those who naturally migrate to its more famous neighbors to the north like Redondo Beach and Manhattan Beach. Torrance Beach is a southern continuation of Redondo Beach, extending 1½ miles before reaching Malaga Cove at the base of the Palos Verdes Peninsula

Without all the excitement of piers, marinas, and boardwalks, Torrance Beach is simply a nice place to spend the day, whether its surfing, sunbathing, playing in the waves, or strolling along the shore. Parking lots are on a bluff overlooking the beach along Paseo de la Playa. Numerous ramps lead down the bluff to the beach. Lifeguards are on duty, a concession stand and restrooms with showers are nearby.
