It's easy to Uber back and forth from the airport and takes less than 10 mins. Pro tip: Upon arrival, take the shuttle to one of the parking garages and catch an Uber from there. It beats the wait, and some Uber drivers reject you because the distance is so short.

This is the big local beach in Playa. It's a short drive from the house, and I am pretty sure you can barbecue and/or have a bonfire here. Dockweiler always appears in the list of top LA beaches.
