Like most water sports, personal watercraft use or jet skiing is very popular here in San Pedro. The calm waters of LA Harbor are ideal for everyday enjoyment and family fun! Much of the harbor area north of boat lauch ramp is restricted from use by personal watercraft and powered boats. For more experienced jet skiers, or those looking for excitement, the outside waters of Cabrillo Beach provide more of a challenge.

There is a boat ramp at Cabrillo Beach on Stephen White Drive where you can launch your personal watercraft. All personal watercraft must be launched at the ramp. It is open from 7:00 AM to Sunset and has trailer parking, boat wash facilities and restrooms. The beach is run by the County of Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks.
