Playa del Rey

Playa del Rey California

WELCOME TO PLAYA DEL REY

Playa del Rey is a quaint beach community located on the Westside of Los Angeles. The area’s picturesque wide sandy beach offers volleyball courts, a paved bike path, and a grassy park with a playground and basketball courts. Locals refer to the north end of Playa Del Rey Beach as “Toes Beach” for hanging ten (toes) on a surfboard.

LIVING IN PLAYA DEL REY

Playa del Rey offers a range of residential options, including beachfront condos and single family homes. The area embodies laidback coastal living, with its lack of high-rise buildings and overdevelopment. The quiet community is tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Yet, it’s close to vibrant neighborhoods, including Venice and Playa Vista, as well as the Silicon Beach tech mecca; and it’s just a 10 minute drive to LAX.

The community’s main strip is dotted with a mix of longstanding and contemporary bars and eateries, from cozy, casual options to a hip gastropub. The winding strip, which ends at the beach, also includes a florist, beauty shop, and vintage boutique. The 600-acre Ballona Wetlands Ecological Reserve, a habitat for hundreds of bird species, separates Playa del Rey from the neighboring beach community of Playa Vista. A bridge that connects Playa Del Rey to Ballona Creek is accessible by foot or bicycle only, which allows residents to take in even more of the area’s peaceful natural beauty. If you’re a surfer, beach goer, or nature lover seeking an LA home that feels like a hideaway, Playa Del Rey may just be your perfect match.
