With its compact area and easy layout, travelling around Marina del Rey is a breeze.
Located just four miles north of Los Angeles International Airport, Marina del Rey is an air traveler's dream destination.
By car, Marina del Rey is accessible from all major area freeways. Marina Freeway (90) West directly connects with the San Diego Freeway (405), the major north-south route through Los Angeles. For this reason, as well as the community's peaceful harborfront location, Marina del Rey is a popular base for Los Angeles-bound leisure and business travelers. For in-transient travelers, the community offers a refreshing break from the airport, and is a quick 10-minute ride from LAX by shuttle, taxi or public bus. Travelers flying between coasts or continents often break up their trips with an overnight stay in the Marina. It is also a popular resting stop before and after Asian flights or Pacific cruises. Arriving from LAX couldn't be easier. Once in town, getting around is also easy. While most travelers to L.A. prefer to drive themselves from place to place, visitors also have access to municipal bus services, commercial shuttles and taxis and organized sightseeing services. Just ask for information at any hotel front desk and they will be happy to help you make arrangements. During summer weekends, local beach and water bus shuttles are a fun and easy way to travel through the community.
