LA`s a funny place. It`s very spread out and there isn`t really one particular part to head to. Redondo Beach isn`t bad. There`s Beverly Hills, Venice Beach and all those sort of places to visit. I`ve never been there when the weather has been unbearably hot, although it can get a bit smoggy. I wouldn`t bother in the winter if you want warmth. Even though it`s California, it`s not hot all year around - although pleaseant. If I was going I`d go May or September.
