Things to do in Palos Verdes
Palos Verdes Estates is a city located in Los Angeles County atop the Palos Verdes Hills and the bluffs of the Palos Verdes Peninsula. The views of the Pacific Ocean are what makes this area so unforgettable. For special occasions, an amazing celebration venue is the Wayfarers Chapel, also known as “The Glass Church.” It is noted for its unique organic architecture and location on cliffs above the ocean.
Terranea Resort is a must for those of you who enjoy spas and resorts, and can also be a stunning event venue for the most luxurious weddings. Poised above coastal bluffs with sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean, Terranea is a sophisticated Mediterranean-inspired resort celebrated for its natural beauty.

With nine dining options, an award-winning golf course, and four swimming pools, this is a resort that you must visit at least once in your life!
Also a spot for great views is Point Vicente Lighthouse in Rancho Palos Verdes, north of Los Angeles Harbor. Standing at 67 feet tall, on a cliff with a height of 130 feet, it can be found between Point Loma Lighthouse to the south and Point Conception Lighthouse to the north.
