You will see this memorial stone next to the parking
lot on Palos Verdes Dr. Walk for 600 ft and turn right
on to Trump National Dr. Walk for 0.5 mile on the
Sidewalk to reach Catalina Trail. Once you are on
Catalina Trail turn right on to Sunrise trail
which you will see in about 300 ft.
If it is a clear day you can see Santa Catalina
island from the beach. Enjoy the beautiful beach,
you deserve it.
There is no more tree cover after this point. And you see great views of the ocean to the left.
Stay on Sunrise trail for little more than 0.25 mile. You will encounter a stream with cold water, it can be slippery so be careful when you are crossing it.
