Santa Monica Pier
The Santa Monica Pier (200 Santa Monica Pier, Santa Monica, CA 90401) is one of the most recognized landmarks in Southern California — a 100-year-old wooden pier stretching into the Pacific with Pacific Park's solar-powered Ferris wheel, the Looff Hippodrome carousel (a National Historic Landmark), the Santa Monica Pier Aquarium, and a full lineup of food vendors and arcade games. It marks the western end of Historic Route 66 and draws millions of visitors annually. Parking directly adjacent to the Pier is metered and fills fast on weekends.
Charter buses and large vehicles use the beach lot access points along Appian Way and Ocean Front Walk — confirm current oversized vehicle access with the City of Santa Monica before your visit, as lot rules are enforced.
