Getting Around
On the Ground

The easiest and most economical way to get around Southern California is by car, especially if you plan to explore the area during your stay. That said, if you're flying into LAX and plan to stay put at Terranea for the weekend, a round-trip Uber or Lyft to and from the airport may be the simpler option.
