The Santa Monica Pier is the classic “end of the road” LA landmark—home to Pacific Park’s Ferris wheel, arcade games, snack stands, street vibes, ocean views, and nonstop people-watching. It’s also one of the most-filmed spots in Los Angeles.
Top things to do: ride the Ferris wheel, walk the pier at sunset, grab boardwalk snacks, watch street performers, and hit the beach/bike path nearby.
