Best Beach In Southern CaliforniaA Great Southern California Beach Vacation !But the best and most popular beach in Southern California is in Santa Monica. So if you are dreaming of a Southern California Beaches vacation, be sure to come to the Santa Monica Beach. This is the beach that people love to visit and hang out at in Southern California. The Santa Monica beach is wide and sandy, and it's the place for sunbathing and socializing. Swimming is great also, but there is no surfing allowed. It is very popular, so be prepared for a mob scene on summer weekends and warm weather holidays. Plan to come early so you can easily find parking, which can be expensive. The last time I checked the parking fee was $14.

Santa Monica has a nice long bike path. There are convenient bike rentals available, so you could bike all the way to Redondo Beach, if you wanted to. It's 22 miles long.
