A true California paradise, Santa Monica offers the shopping and dining you’d expect to find in a major city with the surfing, swimming and play you could only find on the California coast.

Visitors will enjoy upscale shopping and star-spotting on the Third Street Promenade; the carnival atmosphere of the Santa Monica Pier; some 75 museums and art galleries; and easy access to other nearby attractions like Beverly Hills, Disneyland and Magic Mountain. And of course, there’s and endless range of bars and nightlife to keep things interesting until the morning hours.

Santa Monica is located just north of LAX airport on the Pacific Coast.
