Ginger Roger's Beach

No matter when you visit Los Angeles’ iconic Ginger Rogers Beach, you'll always find a vibrant crowd from West Hollywood, but it's on the weekends when this picturesque stretch truly comes alive. Accessible via the Santa Monica Blue Bus 9, Ginger Rogers Beach stands out as the only gay beach within Los Angeles City proper, making it a consistently fun destination for a seaside day. The gay community often gathers around Lifeguard Tower 18, and there's a scenic cycle trail that leads directly to this popular spot.
