The beaches in the Los Angeles area are my least favorite beaches. First, they can be attended by huge flocks of people. If you like people watching, maybe these beaches are for you. I prefer the more intimate coastlines that are found further south and further north. That would be Laguna Beach and south and Malibu north. But, hey, each his own. If you like to see interesting people, really beautiful people, the beaches in the Santa Monica/Venice Beach area will appeal to you. I'm always amazed, though, when I read complaints from people who stayed at the beach in the Venice Beach area and were offended by the homeless, the strange, and the crime. It's an urban beach, people!
