From the beaches to the mountains to the desert. From Santa Barbara to L.A. to San Diego and Orange County, Palm Springs to Venice and Oceanside, southern California sways to a different beat. It simmers in summer, rocks when it quakes. It can be cool, quirky, chic, funky or elegant.

But whatever flavor you're after, southern California is perpetually vibrant, shimmering in sunlight and exuding good vibrations.
