Manhattan State Beach

In the South Bay district of Los Angeles, Manhattan State Beach is located between Hermosa Beach and Los Angeles International Airport. It is known as a sportsmen's paradise. There are 50 volleyball courts, and a game is always in progress.

The beach is well-kept and well-known, attracting more than four million people each year. The 928-foot-long Manhattan Beach Pier, built in the 1920s, is a popular hangout for surfers and an excellent fishing spot. The Roundhouse Marine Studies Lab and Aquarium is an octagonal structure at the pier's base.
