Pacific Park
- Amusement park
- Regional draw
- Santa Monica
Pacific Park occupies part of Santa Monica Pier, pairing amusement rides with open views over the Pacific Ocean.
Its Ferris wheel and roller coaster give the pier much of its familiar skyline and offer a different experience from simply walking the public promenade.
Check the operator’s current ride schedule, ticket options and participation requirements before arriving. Entry to the pier and access to individual rides are separate arrangements, so choose a pass or tickets based on what you intend to use. Weather and maintenance can affect ride availability, and busy periods may require extra time for queues.
