I was born and raised in sunny Southern California and will never tire of the West Coast, although I spent several years living in Southeast Asia, about as far from California as you can get. Wherever I am in the world, I love straying from the beaten path, experiencing local life, and discovering hidden gems - camera in hand. The beach is my happy place and when I am not there (or writing), you will usually find me baking, watching movies, and cuddling my pugs. I have traveled around the country and around the world, and it never, ever gets old. Being able to combine my passion for travel and my love of writing is nothing short of a dream.
Summer is full of fun outdoor events and activities in Southern California. From food festivals to concerts to movies in the park, there is always something happening. If you are trying to come up with some fun ideas for a night out, whether for the family, a few friends, or a date night, how about a unique floating cinema in Los Angeles?
Just about 30 minutes north of downtown Los Angeles, Castaic Lake is a stunning reservoir and fantastic recreation area with clean white beaches, clear blue water, and pretty mountains.
In addition to being popular with locals for boating, swimming, fishing, and camping, it is a spectacular setting for LA’s first and only beach party and floating cinema where you watch a movie on the beach from your own little boat.
Boat Cinema LA promises an enchanting evening full of films, food, fun, and even music.

Reserve your own private electric mini-boat which seats up to five people or bring your own blankets, towels, and beach chairs to enjoy the movie from the beach.
You can pack a basket full of whatever food, drinks, and snacks you like, or you can opt to have a picnic or charcuterie box prepared for you! It gets even more fun with Boat Cinema's one-of-a-kind Canoe Concessions, offering boat-side service and even pizza delivered to your boat.
At least one person per boat rental must be 18 years of age or older. Children over the age of two are welcome on the boats, and you can even bring a fur baby under 30 pounds.
Sit back in the water and enjoy movie favorites like Top Gun, The Notebook, Grease, Finding Nemo, Jaws, and more. You won’t experience this anywhere else.
Ticket prices vary based on the experience you choose. You can even purchase a Beach Club Season Pass which lets you and three guests come all summer long and enjoy beach seating.
