When is the best time to visit Los Angeles?

It’s the perfect time to enjoy Santa Monica, Venice, and Malibu’s beaches, whether for sunbathing, surfing, or dining at open-air restaurants serving fresh seafood and local favorites.
Spring offers milder temperatures (mid-60s to low 70s °F), making it an ideal season for outdoor activities.
