I'm going to rant because I really was disappointed by LA... ;) I'll admit I haven't really explored San Diego... but north of that I didn't see anything that impressed me.

I rest my case. You've never been there. Everyone in Florida thinks that in LA everyone wears flipflops and tanktops all year round like in FL -- that's just not the case -- in LA even in the summer it gets very cold at night -- you have to wear a jacket most of the time... this is because LA is a) further north than FL b) a desert climate -- ie: it doesn't rain and c) FL has the warm Gulf Steam to keep the water warm.
Miami Vice? hehe... You know they flimed Baywatch in Venice Beach where i lived for almost a year and I can honestly say I only saw THREE babes rollerskating in a bikini the ENTIRE time I lived there!! You watch Baywatch and you would think it's nothing but chicks in bikinis on rollerblades -- these are just models paid to roll in front of the camera for $$$ -- it's a big fucking joke -- the real Venice Beach is lots of tourists, street vendors, bums, art fags, dope heads, drug dealers and retired crack whores w/ a few retired celebrities here and there in disguise (they call it "bumming it up"). Once and a while you will see a hot babe in a bikini on the beach but she has got a whole camera crew with her and body guards and as soon as the camera goes off she's got a warm blanket and she's off to the next shoot... Everyone stays on the boardwalk -- the beaches are literally empty almost all day except for the sleeping homeless people -- a few tourists desperate to see the ocean -- and there are actually some babes near a little area by the police station during the summer when it's not too cold or too windy.
Here's the map:

Pretty much it's all waterfront homes and zero babes from Malibu down south except for a few in Venice, Hermosa, and Long Beach...
In South Florida you can pretty much drive right along down the beach A1A from Delray all the way to Miami... the people that live there actually have access to the beaches -- what a concept ;) PCH is a joke -- PCH is designed to keep traffic away from the wealthy waterfront property owners and you will rarely see the water along PCH except for along the cliffs in Malibu where it's pretty much deserted...
