Sunset Beach

 

What makes Sunset a special surf spot?: "The waves seem to be endlessly forgiving, not all sectiony and mushy like they usually are. They have so much juice, so much face, you can do anything you want on them. And the water quality is pristine. When you stand up on a wave, you can see straight through the face right down to the bottom. It almost seems like the water is alive, dancing... and you are dancing with it, dancing on a jewel-like blue-green wave of perfection. The experience is so unexpected, so beautiful, you don't know where you are anymore. A tropical, remote, paradisiacal island?"

Port of Los Angeles

"Today’s Port of Los Angeles is America’s premier gateway for goods and services, and a bustling center for global commerce. Handling cargo as diverse as the world it serves, the Port’s economic impact is unprecedented in terms of regional jobs and economic impact.
The Port of Los Angeles also serves as a vital ecological habitat, with several hundred species of fish and marine birds making it their home.
Additionally, the Port is a source of recreational facilities. Each year, more than one million cruise passengers travel to and from Los Angeles."

Spring Equinox

"Behold, my friends, spring has come; the earth has gladly received the embraces of the sun, and we shall soon see the results of their love!"

Lighthouses in Cali

 

This graceful Victorian-style building surrounded by colorful flower gardens, is one to the oldest lighthouses on the west coast. It was built in 1874 and served as an aid to safe passage between the Channel Islands and into the harbor for nearly one hundred years. The land for the lighthouse was donated by Jose Diego Sepulveda.
