About White Point and Royal Palms Beach

A San Pedro beach and bluff park known for tidepools, diving, and fishing. Source

The area known today as White Point/Royal Palms Beach was discovered by Spanish explorers around 1770. They encountered a group of native people later known as the Gabrielino. They were named after the San Gabriel Mission founded by the Spanish. The Gabrielino were a hunter/gather group who lived in small sedentary groups of 50 to 100 people. They relied heavily on plant foods and meat from marine resources.
