Abbot Kinney Boulevard
If you’ve grown tired of walking around the Venice Ocean Front Walk, head over to Abbot Kinney Boulevard. Renovated in the late '80s, Abbot Kinney boasts a more chic side to Venice Beach. Lined with dozens of boutiques and restaurants, you’ll find the sanctuary of air conditioning on a hot day. While on a shopping break, be sure to check out the 3 Square Cafe + Bakery to try some delicious pretzel rolls, scones, and danishes.
