Looking for a beach to spend a few hours in L.A.

We arrive in L.A. Sunday morning and we are looking for a nice scenic beach to spend a few hours. We have a whale watching tour leaving from Newport Beach scheduled in the afternoon.
Since we will be in O.C. we considered going to one of the beaches in Laguna or maybe Huntington Beach. Im also not opposed to one of the L.A. county beaches to spend a little time (Hermosa, Manhattan, or Redondo). Never been to any of these, just looking for the best beach/beaches to visit. TIA

Laguna Beach is the nicest beach in either Orange or L.A. County and it's right next to Newport. The grounds at the Montage are open to the public. Go there

Yep. I would stay down in O.C. The scenery is much more beautiful there. Hermosa is my go-to L.A. beach and is more fun if you're looking to get something to eat, people watch, bike the strand, etc..

We stayed in Huntington Beach this past summer and enjoyed it.....maybe not as scenic as some of the others but it was a good time.

Table Rock in Laguna Beach is the only answer!
ETA: The pictures in that link do not do it justice. It's a surreal beach hidden off the beaten path in Laguna. There's a cave you can get in to get away from the sun. It's one of my favorite spots in all of So Cal.

Go to the Huntington Beach Pier. There’s a little placed called Sandy’s underneath the pier to grab something to eat. Rent bikes and ride on a wide sidewalk up the coastline.
I have directed quite a few people to this location and there have been no disappointments.

Bike riding in Huntington Beach is one of my favorite things to do.

My wife grew up in LA and says Laguna is the nicest.

Laguna or Dana Point for sure
If you stay in LA, then Hermosa

Thousand Steps Beach in Laguna Niguel. I used to live in Dana Point and this is the prettiest beach in the area. You have to walk down steps, but not a thousand...more like 200, to get to the beach.

Agree, but prepare yourself. The HB bike traffic is comparable to NYC auto traffic. It’s CRAZY the number of bikes on the streets there. Pretty cool.
FWIW, avoid Venice at all costs. Unless you’re homeless.

Corona del Mar. Check it out. I've been to all of them and that's the only one I miss.
