Is Abbot Kinney Boulevard worth it in a day?

Worth itIn a day

Even on a tight schedule, Abbot Kinney Boulevard earns the hours.

Allow 1-2 hours.

Often called one of the coolest streets in America — a tight, leafy strip of indie fashion, design, and coffee that captures westside LA taste. It's also expensive and can feel curated-for-Instagram, so it's a browse-and-coffee outing rather than a sightseeing destination.
