VALID VETERANS PLATES

Veterans with the following license plates can take advantage of free weekday parking at lots run by the Department of Beaches and Harbors:

CALIFORNIA STATE PARKS DISTINGUISHED VETERANS PASS

We realize that the State Parks Distinguished Veterans pass is popular. Unfortunately, this pass is not accepted at any of the Dockweiler State Beach and Will Rogers State Beach parking lots. While the beaches do belong to the state, they are operated by Los Angeles County. We do not receive any compensation from State Parks for their operation. Parking fees help offset the cost of beach and facilities maintenance, such as cleaning the restrooms and trash pickup.
