Eben,
There's a slope in Pacific Palisades (just north of Santa Monica) called Temescal,
though I've never flown there. I understand its good, but there is virtually no
landing area. In Malibu, there are no really good spots right on the coast, but there
is a pretty good place called Snake Hill, which is a 3 or 4 miles inland from the
coast. Lots of people fly there and the landing area is pretty good. I also know of
at least one "secret" spot just a bit north of L.A. which is very consistant and even
offers some DS. Do you know what city you will be staying in?
