Only a few minutes from LAX, El Segundo is a hidden beachside gem that’s quickly earning a reputation as a unique corner of Southern California. With its friendly, small-town charm and an ever-growing community of diverse businesses, El Segundo is the perfect starting place for vacationers, business travelers and SoCal locals alike.

El Segundo's central location along the Los Angeles coastline makes it easy to access everything Southern California has to offer. Hop on the Pacific Coast Highway and head north for a scenic drive or find an easy route to LA hot spots, like the Santa Monica Pier, Universal Studios, Hollywood and Disneyland. If you’re here on business, El Segundo makes it possible to live like a local while making your commute to work short and sweet. Already consider yourself a SoCal local? A day trip to El Segundo will show you that there’s plenty here you’ve yet to discover.

One of the best things about El Segundo is that it’s a city that holds the potential for just about anything. With a thriving community of trendy shops, great restaurants and unique businesses, you’ll be able to fill your day without ever having to leave. Or, if you’re hoping to experience all of Southern California’s highlights, you’ll love being able to easily explore the region while still having a comfortable, friendly place to call your home base.

Grab a freshly-made juice or steaming latte at a local favorite, then pack some snacks and enjoy a picnic on the beach. Once the sun goes down, you might have a tough time choosing where to enjoy dinner and drinks — with so many delicious options, this town is a foodie heaven. When you’re ready to call it a night, check into one of the many hotels. Your accommodation options include both well-known names and new boutique brands, all of which provide plenty of amenities at prices that won’t empty your wallet.

If sports are more your thing, El Segundo's got you covered. As the home of the Los Angeles Lakers and LA Kings and soon the Los Angeles Chargers, the city is at the epicenter of Southern California sports culture. And with the multi-billion-dollar SoFi Stadium nearby (home to the 2027 Super Bowl), you'll have easy access to every big game.

El Segundo is the Southern California destination you’ve been dreaming about — different from anything else you’ve experienced before. Wherever the road leads you, it all starts in El Segundo.
