This week cuz and I Took a trip to the famous Venice Beach! This tourist attraction has a two and a half mile pedestrian only walkway right on the beach. It's known for all the sights, as well as the very popular Muscle Beach area where legendary Joe Weider and Arnold Schwarzenegger had their iconic, humble footprints.
Really enjoyed the day, but just now beforehand that parking will cost you! Be prepared to pay anywhere from $15 to $30 for an entire day of parking. Some street parking is available, but near impossible to obtain. We arrived on a Sunday around noon and was able to pay $18 to park at the far end of the walk, right on the beach.
We saw lots of homeless and transients walking and stalking around the strip, but it's about what you'd expect in any tourist area. Just watch your belongings and your money.
Had a great time just cruising the walk. The food is obviously gonna cost you, as well. A regular burger was about $10, but we did find a place to nab a large pizza slice for only about $7 each.
Next time, we'll have to check out more of the area!
Hapa Out!
