Los Angeles travel guide
Beyond Hollywood
LA’s colourful and eclectic beaches stretch for 81 miles. They start from exclusive Malibu and wind all the way to Long Beach, passing the redesigned Venice Boardwalk, lively Santa Monica, beautiful Orange County and picturesque Marina Del Rey.
Away from the beaches, Beverly Hills is famous for its celebs, designer stores and chic ‘see and be seen’ bars, restaurants and hotels. Hollywood itself is home to the Oscars, Hollywood & Highland™ entertainment, and superb dining. It's also where you'll find the movie experience theme park, Universal Studios. Or, head to Anaheim for family fun – this place has all the rides, attractions and beaches you need for a great day out.
There are plenty of things to do beyond the city, too. The state highway offers one of the best scenic drives in the USA. Go for a drive and absorb the beauty California's beaches, before lounging around and soaking up the sun in this city’s Mediterranean climate.
Eating out
The Beverly Hills area is full of fine restaurants, and there are plenty of lively diners along Sunset Boulevard in the district of West Hollywood. For food with views over the Pacific, head to Santa Monica. Or, for affordable tourist fare, try Universal Citywalk.
Entertainment and nightlife
The famous Sunset Boulevard still boasts some of LA’s most famous clubs, but other areas are now competing for a slice of the city’s lively nightlife action. Dance the night away at Santa Monica’s Third Street Promenade, or Universal Citywalk.
Shopping
Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills is filled with exclusive designer stores from Gucci to Tommy Hilfiger. The Beverly Centre is a favourite of the stars, and Century City Shopping Centre boasts leading names like Macy’s and Bloomingdale’s. You'll find the trendiest stores on Melrose Avenue, while Hollywood & Highland™ offers top quality fashion in the heart of Hollywood.
