Photos Manhattan Beach California, traffic jam and surf

Manhatta Beach isn't the new york city beach ! but it is 19 miles southwest of Los Angeles, California. It's a well known place for surf and beach-volley ball, but it's too a place for shopping and there is traffic jam in summer with yellow cabs... like in the other manhattan... (webcams : surfline - watchthewater , history : on wikipedia) Manhattan Beach n'est pas la plage de New York, mais une plage située à 25 km au sud-ouest du centre de Los Angeles, réputée pour ses spots de surf, ses compétitions de beach-volley mais on y trouve aussi des taxis jaunes... et des embouteillage en été.
