The canals have a beautiful walking path (no bikers, please) right on the water. The walk is picturesque, with large bridges between canals reminiscent of Venice's namesake in Italy. The canals are a great way to take advantage of a sunny day by the water, especially if you feel like steering clear of sand.

The pedal boats are only ten dollars for an hour, and from the lake you get an amazing view of Downtown LA. The boats are closed after the sun goes down on the weekends, and if you do manage to catch the sunset you are in for a special treat.
