The Sunken City of San Pedro is adjacent to Point Fermin Park and Lighthouse and near Long Beach and Rancho Palos Verdes.
The reason it is “sunken” is because land under a former housing development began to slump towards the ocean before it was eventually condemned and closed. It’s now considered off-limits to the public but people are still seen going into it from the park.
What’s left is a mess of broken concrete walls and foundations that have been covered in colorful graffiti.
