The building can be viewed from the outside but is not open to visits by the general public because it is a functioning school. It also served as the backdrop for other movies such as Fast Times At Ridgemont High, The Wild Life, Not Another Teen Movie, Bring It On, Whatever It Takes, Cursed, Wild Things 3, Bruce Almighty, and Less Than Zero. In Buffy the Vampire Slayer, it was Sunnydale High. In Beverly Hills, 90210, it served as the fictional West Beverly High. Parking is limited but nowhere near as poor as nearby Hermosa Beach or Venice Beach.
Neither glamorous nor fancy, this clean, large, busy beach attracts thousands from the surrounding area. Better ways to travel would be ridesharing, such as Uber or Lyft, or car rental. However, public transportation is uncommon in Torrance.

Torrance is served by LA Metro, Torrance Transit, and GTrans, all of which are integrated with the TAP card payment system. From the 110 south of the 405, heading west on Torrance Blvd., Carson St., 223rd St., Sepulveda Blvd., or Pacific Coast Highway will also land you in Torrance. Torrance is also accessible from several other exits from the 405, including Redondo Beach Blvd., Artesia Blvd., Crenshaw Blvd., and Western Blvd. In terms of public transit, Line 8 of Torrance Transit offers service from the airport. While traveling south on SR 107/Hawthorne Blvd., look for the Del Amo Fashion Center (see "Buy" below) on the left. Take the 42A exit and go south on State Route 107 (Hawthorne Boulevard). Torrance is just a couple of miles south of Los Angeles International Airport ( LAX IATA) on Interstate 405 (San Diego Freeway).
