Hollywood Beach & Broadwalk

TIME : 2016/2/18 11:10:36

Reminiscent of California's famed Venice Beach, this beach and adjacent promenade teem with scantily clad Rollerbladers and fanny-pack-wearing tourists. The Broadwalk itself is a 2.2-mile, six-person-wide path, extending from pretty North Beach Park , where the route is lined with seagrapes, all the way to South Surf Road . It's regularly clogged with skaters, strollers and entire families pedaling enormous group bikes. The latter like to stop at Charnow Park , where there's shaded seating and a popular interactive fountain.

If you feel like rolling along it, a dozen or so Broadwalk vendors rent bikes (per hour/day $10/30), Rollerblades and other beach gear.
