We stopped here the other day and I must say I prefer this Pier to the Santa Monica Pier. Less busy and not so much going on. Could sit here for hours with just hearing the sound of the powerful waves .

Beautiful Sunsets, but chilly in January. Perfect area for walking and lots of area bike and skate rentals available

A pier is a pier is a pier but location is everything. Hermosa is a great beach with thundering surf. However I still don't get the surfing craze. Sit on my board forever, wait for 'THE' wave, paddle furiously and fall down 3 seconds later. Oh well, perhaps an acquired taste.

Beautiful spot with plenty to do. Close to restaurants, shopping, and bars. Beach is well maintained and not many homeless which seems to be a problem in other areas.

Hermosa Beach is beautiful, save and excellent for couples, family and friends. The waters are super clean & there is plenty space for a walk on the beach.

Bring your own towels and tents! The water is great with big waves on one side and swimming area on the other. There are signs but the lifeguards had to remind the swimmers often of where to stay. Parking is difficult so we had to walk quite a bit. Once at the beach, there is a long stretch of sandy beach so you can walk for a while or select a nice spot. There are lifeguard stations along the way. There are shops and restaurants nearby as well. There are showers and toilets for easy beach access. Enjoy and stay safe!

Visited both Redondo Beach and Hermosa Beach/pier on the same day and hands down Hermosa wins! Lots of facilities such as public restrooms, showers, plenty of garbage cans, and wide Sandy beaches. Pier is well maintained.

I came with some friends just planning on walking the beach, but it was just warm enough that we decided to get in the water. Some HUGE waves. I got flattened a few times. There was a lot of shrieking.

The place is not as busy as before. The parking fees are there but is extortionate. Can just imagine the fines.

I used to come here all the time for fishing. Before it sustained severe damage one time and rebuilt, there used to be a small fast food joints at the end of the pier that provided hot food and drinks for late night snacks.
This stretch of beaches have less visitors than the famous one north of south of the Southbay area, still retain some of the old relaxed atmosphere and less tourists also made finding parking easy. Good place to feel the sea breeze and the sultry smell of the sea. Great place to watch sunset as well.

My friend and I are going on a j1 to Hermosa beach where would be the best place to live? We also have friends working in Santa Monica should we share accommodation? Thanks

I think anywhere in the South Bay area is nice. Living by the beach is nice but it is pricey. That being said I try to live where i work. Even though Santa Monica is not that far your commute time might take 45 minutes to an hour.

Hello I would like to spend a few hours in Hermosa Beach and I 'm looking for a place where I could store my luggage so that I can enjoy the beach .I won't have a car and I will spend the night before in Anaheim and come with Uber or Lyft so I can't leave my luggage in Anaheim . Any idea ?
I thank you in advance for your help !

Depends on your plan, time of day, and weekday or weekend as well as time of year. Be smart have a lock and plan an all day affair It's a beach thing time limits do not apply.

What beaches have lockers and showers?

Hermosa Beach does offer free outdoor showers. I did not see any lockers nearby. I left my things on my beach towel...no problems...particularly if you swim near a manned lifeguard tower. What a beautiful beach.

Are there lockers available or a place to safely store personal items while swimming?

No. It is a safe place so just find a spot on the beach and lay out your beach towels and enjoy! People are pretty respectful of your space and items!

Hi. I think HB is smaller and nicest. Less tourist and better prices. HB is a mix of locals and some tourists.
