The City of Rancho Palos Verdes has launched an online parking reservation system for Del Cerro Park and the popular Portuguese Bend Reserve. Visitors can use the ParkMobile website or mobile app to reserve parking spaces on Crenshaw Boulevard south of Crest Road and on Park Place, near the Rattlesnake and Burma Road Trailheads.
The system is being implemented to manage parking and improve traffic flow in the Del Cerro Park area.
Parking with ParkMobile
- ParkMobile reservations are required for all 60 spaces on Crenshaw Boulevard south of Crest Road and on Park Place.
- Reservations must be made by 11:59 p.m. the night before your visit.
- Visitors cannot park and then reserve their spot.
- Reservations are limited to blocks of two hours and 45 minutes from 7 a.m. to an hour after sunset (shorter or longer blocks of time will not be available when the system launches).
- Reservations are free of charge until August 2, when parking will be $10 per reservation block and can be paid using ParkMobile. An additional $0.35 processing fee will apply.

- 15 spaces on Park Place adjacent to Del Cerro Park remain available to those who hold a Residential Recreational Parking Permit.
