Dockweiler State Beach Access provides a wide, sandy beach with over 1,200 parking spaces (day-use parking $7-$13), restrooms, outdoor showers, and picnic facilities along a 3. 7-mile shoreline in Playa del Rey.

The beach features a well-maintained bike path, jetties at the north end suitable for fishing, and calm waters ideal for swimming and water activities.

Note that the location is directly beneath the LAX flight path, resulting in significant aircraft noise throughout the day.
