The landscape around Hermosa Beach is a low, sandy stretch of the South Bay coast on the Pacific Ocean, which has shaped both its compact urban form and beach-centred economy. The city lies between Manhattan Beach and Redondo Beach in Los Angeles County, with The Strand providing a continuous shoreline route for walkers and cyclists. Hermosa Beach Pier anchors the downtown waterfront, while Pier Avenue leads from local restaurants and shops toward the sand. Beach volleyball and surfing are central to local outdoor culture, and the city has long hosted professional beach-volleyball events.
