This live stream looks out over El Porto, a sandy stretch of coastline in Manhattan Beach on the southern edge of Los Angeles. It is a useful way to check how the Pacific looks before you head down to the sand. The page also shows local time and the weather outlook for the area.

About the South Bay coast

Manhattan Beach sits on the Santa Monica Bay shoreline south of Los Angeles International Airport, a low-rise seaside town known for its wide beach, pier area and long stretch of sand. El Porto is the quieter northern end of the town, popular with surfers and locals who come for the waves and the relaxed beach-town feel. The coast here is flat and open, so the ocean and sky dominate the scene.

What to watch and when

Depending on the view, you may see surfers paddling out, swimmers, walkers along the sand and the shifting colour of the water. Mornings often bring calmer surf and clearer air, while late afternoon light can make the coastline especially pleasant to watch. Weekends tend to be busier on the sand, and changing swell can make the waves look very different from one day to the next.

Practical notes for visitors

The area has a mild Mediterranean-type climate with dry, sunny summers and cooler, damp winters, so late spring through early autumn is the most comfortable time to visit. Parking near the beach can be limited, and walking or cycling along the Strand bike path is a popular way to get around. Nearby cameras on this page cover other spots in Manhattan Beach, so you can compare conditions along the shore.
