The Beach Cities are a collection of three independently incorporated oceanfront cities in Los Angeles County south of El Segundo and north of the Palos Verdes Peninsula, comprising the cities of Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, and Redondo Beach. They occupy the majority of the south end of Santa Monica Bay. Neighboring Torrance also shares a strip of beach property in the neighborhood of Torrance Beach, but the city of Torrance is not generally recognized as part of the group.
