Cabrillo Beach, Public beach in San Pedro, Los Angeles, United States
Two distinct sections of shoreline offer ocean waves on one side and calm harbor waters on the other side of the breakwater.
The beach received its name from Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo, who navigated the California coast in 1542 during Spanish expeditions.
The beach hosts regular grunion runs where these small fish emerge from the water to lay eggs during full and new moons.
Parking facilities operate from 5:30 AM to 10:30 PM with hourly rates of $1 for regular vehicles and $2 for vehicles with boat trailers.
The adjacent Cabrillo Marine Aquarium educates visitors about local marine species while offering views of the Pacific Ocean.
