If your family does not mind investing all their reunion time in a myriad of beachside activities, Venice is a perfect destination. The boardwalk that runs along the beach hosts a variety of things to do: volleyball sand-courts, hand-ball courts, a bike trail, the Skate Dancing Plaza, and Muscle Beach are a few of your options. Venice Breakwater is a favorite surf spot in the area. Restaurants that have received positive reviews include the Beechwood, the Canal Club Wood Grill and Sushi Bar, and the James Beach. Have a wonderful family reunion!
