Skate around atop a bluff overlooking the ocean at this Rancho Palos Verdes rink. Available for both reservations and walk-ups (though the former is recommended), this rink at the RPV Civic Center is open for half-hour sessions for a weekend in mid-December, followed by most afternoons from the day after Christmas to about a week after New Year’s, with a few themed nights tossed into the mix, too. But there’s one caveat: The rink is made of synthetic ice.
