Hermosa Beach is the small town others aspire to be. A beautiful beach, eclectic neighborhoods, unique commercial districts, and welcoming gateways create an unrivaled coastal destination. The City has effectively balanced the small town, beach culture with its enviable position as a regional and statewide coastal destination. The City is committed to protecting coastal resources and takes a practical, fiscally-responsible approach to reducing its environmental footprint. Home to nearly 20,000 residents, Hermosa Beach is the heart of the “South Bay” region and plays host to a number of high-profile community events such as summer concerts, street fairs, and sporting events for beach volleyball, tennis and more.
