BEACHES
RV PARK
L.A. County’s only recreational vehicle campground ON THE BEACH! RV’ers enjoy sunshine, ocean breezes, and a scenic panorama from Malibu to Catalina Island. There’s plenty to do and lots to enjoy at Dockweiler RV Park. For starters, this popular, year-round beach campsite offers complete hook-ups, a handy pump-out station, and hot showers. Each campsite has its own picnic table and barbecue, so you can enjoy your stay. And, of course, there’s the ocean only a few steps from your RV door. You can play volleyball at nearby courts, take a walk on the sand, or even have a romantic fire on the beach. It’s all here. This is a great beach for swimming. If you’ve never tried surf fishing, this is your chance.
NEARBY ACTIVITIES
The 22-mile Marvin Braude Bicycle Trail is only a few pedals away from the camp, connecting the RV Park with nearby attractions such as Redondo Beach Pier, Venice, Santa Monica beaches and Marina del Rey.

About the dry camper sites
In fall 2020, the County broke ground on an expansion of the Dockweiler RV Park to increase equitable access to overnight accommodations along our coast. The expansion added lower-cost spaces reserved specifically for campervans.
Each of the 19 campervan spaces incorporates a picnic table and barbecue grill. The project also included expansion of restrooms and outdoor wash stations and improvement of existing laundry facilities to support the increased capacity for overnight visitors.
Dune habitat surrounding the expansion area was restored and enhanced, and interpretive signage was installed as part of the project.
