     Around the world, people envy Southern Californians for our pristine beaches and weather. This weekend, why not go out and visit some beach towns that you may have avoided previously, like Malibu and Pacific Palisades!

     If you like your beach days filled with good times and family fun, visit Pacific Palisades. This exceptional coastal neighborhood has miles of postcard-esque beaches and tons to do if you need a break from the surf and sun. Pacific Palisades has tons of great shopping and dining, but if you want to beat the heat visit the Getty Villa, a fantastic art museum. On the other hand, if you prefer beach days on the quieter side, give the world-famous Malibu a chance. While it’s true that most of Malibu’s main beaches can get packed, the city has various secluded public beaches, like Little Dume Beach or Malibu Colony Beach. So bring a book, and enjoy the peace and quiet!

     Whatever your preference, there is a California beach for you! So why not go out and visit one this weekend? Both Malibu and Pacific Palisades are both accessible from scenic California Route 27, just thirty-five-minutes away from Parthenia Terrace Apartments in Canoga Park, CA.
