Activities: Our advice for visiting Santa Monica? "Rent bikes at Venice Beach and walk along the ocean on Ocean Front Walk to the mythical pier and its attractions." We chose to go at sunset. We spent hours photographing the lifeguard huts on the beach and the waves
Highlights: We loved the atmosphere and the beautiful sunset. There is the feeling of being on vacation here. The pier is at the end of Route 66. We enjoyed the spots around the Pier such as Tongva Park and Palisades Park ✨
