Playa Del Rey Beach Review

Has a large flat rate ($7) parking lot with a short walk to the sand. Recently went on a summer Saturday and the lot was wide open at noon, but filled up around 2pm. Not nearly as crowded as Santa Monica or Venice. Bathroom and outdoor showers available. I think there is also a food vendor, but most people either picnic or hike a couple blocks to Riviera Village. Keep an eye out for dolphins.
