We can’t think of a better way to enjoy the world’s nature all in one place. You can go from an American Bandstand to a British Rose Garden to a Japanese Pagoda all in one stroll.

Time Travel

Visit the ancient world of Greece and Rome without leaving the modern amenities of Conejo Valley. The Getty Villa, modeled after an ancient Roman country house with a luxurious garden, hosts 7,000 years of art.

Or peer through a 12-inch reflective telescope at Moorpark College Observatory. The experience is unique but also limited, so plan and schedule your visit early.

Insta-worthy sunsets

What could be more romantic than watching the sun set over the ocean? Take in the golden rays on sun-kissed Zuma Beach, one of the largest and most popular beaches in LA County. Come during the late afternoon when surfers are out to catch the best waves and stay for the awe-inspiring sunset.
