A fun place to be upclose with our ocean friends

Legoland California Resort
Legoland California Resort -this park is about 90 minutes away from Manhattan Beach. It is great fun for younger kids and their Moms and Dads. If you kids like Legos, they will love this park.
Six Flags Magic Mountain

On the max it states "you better warm up your vocal chords because you are going to scream."Six Flags Magic Mountain is approximately an hour and a half from our hotel.
Long Beach and Santa Monica - some fun ideas!
There is also the Third Street Promenade where you can just walk, eat, shop and once in a while there will be dancing in the streets. How fun is that?
In Long Beach at The Pike at Rainbow Harbor there are rides, food and fun. While in Long Beach, don't forget to visit the legendary Queen Mary. She is still around and docked in Long Beach.

Just 26 miles across the sea - Santa Catalina is waiting for me (and you too)
Catalina Island is a great way to spend the day! Take the Catalina Express and enjoy the fresh air and sometimes you will see dolphins and whales near your boat. There are only about 500 cars on this small, quaint island. Just lay on the beach or you can rent scooters and bikes there.
