As we all have some time to reflect on what’s most important right now, it’s a great time to start thinking about all the spaces and places to visit in Southern California once summer arrives. There’s so much to love about this little slice of paradise! Here are 11 that come to mind. What else would you add to this list?
- Strolling along a crowded SoCal pier and soaking up the waterfront view. That view is one to savor!

- A lazy day at the beach is definitely on the list. Splashing in the ocean, taking a leisurely stroll along the sand, and taking a snooze on a beach blanket. What bliss.

- Outdoor Dining! Even though many Southern Californians are still supporting their local restaurants by ordering take out or purchasing gift certificates for future visits, it’s simply not the same as grabbing a seat at a favorite eatery and enjoying a meal onsite. Especially when the meal is outside!
