In case you haven't stepped outside yet today, Mother Nature has brought Los Angeles some nice "summerlike" weather in which to bask this week and through the weekend. With the sun out and the temperatures in the 90s (!), it's making for some ideal beach day conditions and we hope you take advantage. While you're out there, you're probably going to want to grab some drinks and food to round out the day and we're to help with those plans. So whether you're already scouting out a spot on SoCal's famous coastline near the shore or are good admiring it from afar but don't actually want to make contact with sand, following our earlier roundup of eight, here's a guide to eight more of L.A.'s best beachside restaurants and bars from Marina Del Rey to Malibu that are GofG L.A.-approved.

Nobody, anywhere, does Cinco de Mayo like L.A. does. Not in Mexico, where it's really not that big of a deal, nor in New York, where you can't get a good burrito to save your life. No, Cinco de Mayo belongs to us, and while that may seem like something to brag about, it's also a big responsibility. See, we don't automatically get to keep the title of Best Cinco City, and that means we all have to do our part by getting extra crazy this weekend. Luckily, there are loads of parties on Saturday and Sunday, so whether you're motivated by good food, strong drinks, loud music, or some crazy combination therein, we've got just the fiesta for you in this Cinco de Mayo Party Guide.

Living in this city means bearing witness to a higher than average amount of strange sights and vast array of definitions of socially acceptable human behavior on the daily. Oftentimes the abundance of L.A. weirdness we see in our day-to-day is beyond words when attempting to describe it to those who weren't there. But now with Instagram, the heavy lifting is taken care of for us in capturing a breathtakingly peculiar or otherwise noteworthy vision and sharing it with the world. So join us as we celebrate L.A.'s knack for proving life can always get a little bit funkier with another round of the most absurd, seriously WTF moments you pretty much only ever see in L.A. Insta-captured in the last two weeks.
