Start your adventure by exploring the largest urban park in America, Griffith Park. Hiking trails are vast and varied, ranging from easy to strenuous, with amazing views of LA's skyline, the Hollywood Sign, and Griffith Observatory.
Experience the thrill of sea kayaking in Newport Beach. Paddling through the bay while enjoying a view of the beautiful coastline, rock cliffs, and marine life. It's a full-body workout while enjoying the ocean breeze.
Start your day with a drive down to Laguna Beach, a peaceful coastal city with breathtaking scenery. Take a guided mountain biking tour through the city's network of trails and valleys, with beautiful hilltop vistas overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
Visit the iconic Surf City USA, with a 10-mile stretch of white sand and consistent waves. Sign up for a beginner's session to learn how to surf, and for experienced surfers, head to the south of the pier for more challenging waves.
Unleash your adrenaline, try bungee jumping, and feel the rush of free-falling from 300 feet into a lake. The breathtaking views of the valley make it the perfect spot to try it for the first time, and for seasoned jumpers, try the advanced jump options.
End your adventure with a picturesque hot air balloon ride over Temecula Valley, with scenic vineyards as far as the eye can see. Experience the feeling of floating serenely in the sky with a champagne toast.
If you have more time, add a day exploring the desert and take a sand dune ATV ride in Palm Springs. If you have less time, skip bungee jumping and hot air balloon ride. Keep in mind that some adventurous activities require prior experience and research before you go. Always check for weather and park closures, arrive early, and carry sunscreen, water, snacks, and appropriate gear for each activity.
