With over 4,600 boat slips, Marina del Rey Harbor is a bustling hub for boating enthusiasts and is the largest of its kind in North America.

The harbor is home to a variety of wildlife, including sea lions, pelicans, and even the occasional dolphin, making it a great spot for nature lovers.

Before its transformation into a harbor in the 1960s, the area was a salt marsh, which was later developed to accommodate recreational boating.

Every December, the harbor hosts a festive boat parade featuring beautifully decorated vessels, drawing visitors and locals alike.

During the summer months, the harbor hosts free concerts at Burton Chace Park, providing live music in a picturesque setting.

The Marvin Braude Bike Trail runs through Marina del Rey, offering cyclists scenic views of the harbor and the Pacific Ocean.

The harbor's picturesque setting has been featured in numerous films and television shows, making it a familiar sight to many viewers.
