Burton Chase Park in Marina Del Rey is a Waterfront Joy


Nice grassy area near a walking path right by the Marina Del Rey waterfront.




A nice green space for lounging

Burton Chase Park is a great green space for lounging with a picnic or just reading a book and watching the boats on the water.

10 acres big, it includes BBQ grills and tables and is just generally a very pleasant place to be.

As you can see, it’s a space with walkways mixed in with big areas of green. Shade is certainly plentiful.

This terrace is a great place to work out or just lounge, and you can see the beautiful sunset colors that come out in Marina Del Rey.



Sea lions

The park is a great place to see sea lions lounging on the piers.

Aren’t they cute?



“The Helmsman”

“The Helmsman” is a statue here that is a relic from the Helms Bakery on Venice Blvd. in LA, and its home now is in Chase Burton Park after being gifted by the Helms family. It’s a great piece of Los Angeles history.



What’s close by?

Trader Joe’s

First of all, the park is really close to a Trader Joe’s, so we recommend stopping by beforehand to grab something nice to drink or eat and enjoying it at the park.
