Introducing Palm Springs & Coachella Valley
Resort hounds love Palm Springs. About 3.5 million visitors come here each year, mostly in the cooler months of October through April, to play golf and tennis and enjoy the desert climate of the Coachella Valley, the 300 sq mile valley stretching eastward from Palm Springs.
From spring-break college kids meandering the streets of downtown, to circuit-party gay boys lounging by swimming pools, to LA matrons recovering from face-lifts behind the bougainvillea-covered walls of gated compounds, people are here to relax.
