   #1 Coastal San Pedro

   48

   Coastal San Pedro is home to Korean Bell of Friendship. This beautiful monument, donated by the South Korean government as a token of lasting peace, is located in Angels’ Gate Park and commands a stunning view over the Pacific Ocean. Joan Milke Flores Park is a short walk from the Korean Bell of Friendship, and, like the previous two parks, this is a great place to relax and enjoy those sea views. If the sea air is giving you and your leash-tugging buddy a bit of an appetite, head over to Lighthouse Cafe, where you and Fido can chow down on your breakfast favorites.

   #2 Rancho Palos Verdes

   36

   This scenic spot, located just over 15 minutes from San Pedro, really is the place to be with your wag-tailed wonder! Not only are there 4 dog-friendly parks to chews from, but there’s also 5 dog-friendly restaurants and a beautiful (but a little high-end) hotel with no additional fees or restrictions for canine guests. There are 5 vacation rentals that welcome your happy hounds, and there’s even an off-leash dog park: Rancho Caninos Dog Park. It is worth noting that a strict on-leash policy exists at the 155-acre Forrestal Nature Reserve and the 55-acre Alta Vicente Reserve. This is for your own protection, as snakes are a common sight. The leash rules are strictly enforced by a park ranger.

   #3 Hermosa Beach

   24

   Just a 20-minute drive from San Pedro is a really beautiful waterfront spot to visit. One of its most pawpular attractions is the Hermosa Valley Greenbelt. This 3.7-mile converted rail line is part of the Rails-to-Trails initiative and is a fantastic place to stroll with your four-legged friend. The trail has nearby parking in Hermosa Beach and has a very mild gradient. Another puptastic place to walk is the 1,000 ft pier with its tiled pavilions along the way. This is a great place for a rest stop or just a nice spot to look back on the lights of Rancho Palos Verdes.

   #4 Wilmington

   12

   One of the biggest advantages of staying in the Wilmington neighborhood of LA is its location -- you’re only a 7-minute drive away from San Pedro. This primarily residential neighborhood doesn't have much to offer dog owners, but it does have its own dog-friendly hotel. The Monterey Inn Hotel charges a pet fee and only allows small dogs to accompany hotel guests. This hotel is a real “cut the frills but keep the quality” kind of place for you and your furry friend to stay in. Wilmington is also just a few minutes east of Long Beach, where dog-friendly fun abounds!

   #5 Seal Beach

   Seal Beach really is a perfect hangout spot for you and your little (or big) buddy. It’s just a 19-minute drive from San Pedro, and is located near lots of dog-friendly attractions. Seal Beach itself has plenty for dogs to do, see, and smell. There’s 16 dog-friendly restaurants here, as well as an excellent hotel and an off-leash park. At Arbor Dog Park, all pups in the pack can play together, regardless of their size. If you have a small dog that doesn't play well with the big boys, you might want to give this one a miss. Gum Grove Park is a 10-acre park that's loved by locals, and provides access to river walks and rail trails. Leashed dogs are welcome to explore this park.
