Exploring the VENICE BEACH BOARDWALK Without the Tourists

Published 2023-09-28
The Venice Beach Boardwalk is a two-mile long promenade located in Los Angeles, California. It is a popular tourist destination known for its eclectic mix of street performers, artists, and vendors. The boardwalk is also home to the Muscle Beach Venice gym, a popular spot for bodybuilders and fitness enthusiasts. The best time to visit the Venice Beach Boardwalk is during the day, when the weather is good and there are more people around.

    My first visit to Venice Beach was in 1978, my senior year of high school. A group of friends and I went specifically because we had just seen the movie "The Witch that Came from the Sea" at a drive in theater, most of which was filmed at Venice Beach and the Santa Monica pier area ( side bar: this is NOT a movie recommendation... only a good movie for 18yr olds who live in the 70's 🙂) I loved 70s -80s Venice Beach, and am really happy they are trying to recapture some of the old nuance... its been a coastal "skid row" for far too long !!!

    Thanks for this video. I'm glad u did this as this is where I plan to stay nearby
  • @scottman895
    The boardwalk looks much better than when you filmed the video there a couple years ago! I'm glad that it isn't too crowded when it is not peak season and when you go early enough in the day. It makes it quite enjoyable even though there may not be as many street performers.

    Right on…a shoutout to the GOV!

    Chris we usually visit LA late August, early September and I can remember Venice being much busier than this. Our last trip was 2019, has it changed that much ?
  • @manwithumbrella
    I read a few years ago that those iconic palm trees are dying out and that the city was not interested in spending the money to replace them. Is this the case? Have you seen any youmger trees, ones that might have been planted within the past 20-30 years? Los Angeles with palm trees would be like San Francisco without the cable cars, unthinkable.

    Hi Chris. I'm surprised that Venice Beach has more visitors than Disneyland.The local probably enjoy this time of year because there are no crowds. The business probably don't like it because not many people are spending money.Thanks for sharing and take care.

    Venice Beach feels like a chill place to visit for admire art and visit funny shops or just walk around there. But maybe not for food. Okay, for Ben&Jerry, maybe. 😋😋 Nice music that played in the background it gave the video a nice vibe to it. I really got the California feelings from the video. 🌊⛱️I wonder if next time you're in Venice Beach, what if you can film a video while rollerblade. It would be really cool. 🤩 What do you think could be something?🤗😉
