Palos Verdes Peninsula, in Los Angeles County, is also known as Palos Verdes Estates & Rolling Hills Estates. The Portuguese Bend, the ever shifting land mass near the ocean, is geologically unstable & unsuitable for development. The affluent neighborhoods here have some of the best views of Catalina Island & the Los Angeles coastline.
