Santa Monica Pier is a vibrant, family-friendly destination located at the foot of Colorado Avenue in Santa Monica, California. It offers an exciting mix of amusement park attractions, shops, pubs, restaurants, and outdoor activities like fishing and paddle boarding. Popular attractions include the brightly lit Ferris wheel, historic carousel hippodrome from the 1920s, Santa Monica Pier Aquarium, trapeze school, and arcade video games. The pier also serves as a popular filming location, having been featured in many movies, television shows, and books. Visitors can enjoy breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean while taking in live music or other fun events taking place throughout the year.

Pet-friendly: Yes, but must be kept on leash and well behaved.
