Venice Canals Walkway
- After the Venice Pier we will be heading 2 blocks east on Washington Blvd to the Venice Canals. The Venice Canals community is a magical hidden neighborhood in the Venice Beach area of Los Angeles. It consists of three blocks set around six man-made canals: Grand and Eastern canals run north-south; Carroll, Linnie, Howland, and Sherman stretch east-west and is officially known as the Venice Canal Historic District.
Discovering this serene sanctuary, it's hard to believe you're just a few minutes walk east of Venice's crowded boardwalks and traffic, or mile-long Abbot Kinney Boulevard with its shops, restaurants and galleries.
It's an easy place to explore on foot and you can easily spend an entire morning or afternoon exploring, weaving your way around, along the quiet pathways and over the arching wooden pedestrian bridges. Having said that, we won't! We are just going to walk through the canals heading towards the iconic Venice sign.
