Travel tips
If your plans center on the Santa Monica Pier, Pacific Park, or Santa Monica State Beach, expect them to be a short drive away (roughly 3.7–3.9 km). Free parking can be a major convenience in Santa Monica—plan to use it for day trips to Venice (about 5–6 km) or LA’s museums and Hollywood-area attractions farther out. For sightseeing days that include Universal Studios Hollywood, the Hollywood Walk of Fame, or Griffith Observatory, allow extra travel time due to the longer distances (about 15–18 km).
