A typical city campground that luckily is in the beach. Stayed there because of the lack of options in the city. We were there in the weekend and it was full party time. Lots of music, drinking and airplanes every 30 seconds starting at 5:00am. Good to watch the sunset with 300 of your closest Los Angeles friends!

The day we arrived, there was a homeless person in the ladies shower. The days after that day, I still smelled her.
My boyfriend wanted to take a shower, but the camping host locked the showers for a unknown reason and the camping host told him to take a shower another time. The restrooms are not very clean.
The planes did not bother us. Yes you can hear them fly over, but it is not annoying at all.
We would not stay here again.

This park(ing lot) is right on the beach in Playa del Rey in the Los Angeles area, giving the rare and fantastic opportunity to stay in your RV right on the beach! It literally is a parking lot - 100% concrete - but well maintained and right on the beach. The spots are close together but not unreasonable, and each has a picnic table and grill. There are firepits on the beach. The bathrooms and showers are fine. Did I mention this place is right on the beach?!
Two significant drawbacks: 1) it is literally adjacent to LAX and takeoff flight patterns are right overhead. A lot. Many times a day, particularly in early morning and late evening. Very loud. 2) The space is illuminated at night like a Walmart parking lot - daylight level - all night long.
Dockweiler is in Playa del Rey, a small, charming coastal community. Camping sites are in three long rows, one of which is along the beach. Have stayed here twice, the second time right on the beach, which we really enjoyed. The long beach features a bike path that goes for miles, with a steady stream of colorful bicyclists and pedestrians for great people-watching.
Most of the time I had good Verizon cell service.

Hook ups. Make a reservation through LA County website. We were here and it was cold and rainy. So but as much fun. Bike path along beach right there in front of you and of course the pacific. Lots of construction right now and the airport noise is not to bad. Not many places in LA to call so this is reasonable with full hook ups. I expect it is packed in summer time.

We had to be in LA for work for 2 weeks and this location just happened to work best for us. If the LAX Airport wasn’t directly behind the campground this spot would be killer. But unfortunately it is..... every 2-5 mins a jet rolls over your rig shaking everything leaving it impossible to have a conversation. Not to mention the constant stink of big rig septic waste. This is definitely a vacation spot for friends and family that want to get loud and have fun on the beach and a few drinks in the evening. This campground may not have been our cup of tea but if we were to ever come back we would pay the extra $10 bucks for a beachfront spot. Not everything was bad. There is an incredible beach that has fire pits for evening bonfires and miles of recreational path for cycling and running. Downtown El Segundo is just minutes away with plenty to do.

The summary says it all, I suppose. I loved the proximity to El Segundo and the rest of the South Bay, but I don't think we'll be back.
The staff were super nice and the sites were clean - just cramped and plain. It's a big asphalt lot with a strip of grass between two rows of sites. Backing into our spot with a 34' trailer proved difficult. We arrived on a weekend so it was a bit frustrating getting it parked with all the cars in the road (there's only one loop in the park and everyone had to pass us to get out) but once Sunday afternoon rolled around the RV park completely cleared out and it was pleasant to be in.
Since we didn't have a "beach front" view the dune didn't bother me, and you can walk ~2 more minutes to get around it to see the ocean. I'm sure that sucks for people who paid for a beach-front spot, though.
The big con for me was the smell at night. Oh my god, the SMELL! It was so bad. This park is near a water treatment plant and you could tell in the evening. Honestly - the worst. I would never dream of sitting outside at night, or even leaving your windows open. Good god.

Dockweiler is a pretty nice RV park right on the beach in El Segundo. It is mostly an open lot that is really busy with RV's, but they do have lots of amenities. Every site has its own power, water, sewer, picnic table, and charcoal grill. They do a good job with the landscaping, and there are plenty of trash cans and toilets.
This spot is all about location. There are not a lot of options for RV's in the LA area. If you know how to work it you can stay for free in this area, but it requires moving the rig every morning and night. We decided to spoil our selves for 2 days and just pay to stay at the beach. There is lots to do here. The bike path along the ocean will take you from Redondo Beach to Malibu. There is good surfing just a short drive to the south at El Porto or you can find beach breaks within walking distance. This is also one of the only spots to have a fire on the beach in LA area. The fire pits do fill up at night so get yours before it gets to late.
The down side to this area is that it is expensive and noisy with all the traffic and planes. And Internet and cell can be spotty.
