SANTA MONICA & MALIBU

Sun, sand and shopping! This hugely popular coastal area of Los Angeles has it all. The 1909 pier in Santa Monica still has its old-fashioned amusement park which attracts a huge amount of visitors and interest. The large Ferris wheel and roller-coaster at Pacific Park loom above the recently restored 1922 carousel which was operated by the legendry Paul Newman in The Sting. Fascinating Marine exhibits, Aquariums and modern touch tanks are located at the UCLA Ocean Discovery Center. A concrete beach path stretches for approximately 26miles and provides the best way of absorbing the atmosphere of the area.
Third Street Promenade is recognized as Santa Monica’s centre of entertainment. The promenade consists of four pedestrianized blocks of cafes, shops and movie theatres. For a more cultural experience, Main Street boasts trendy restaurants, art galleries and the California Heritage Museum at Ocean Park.
South of Santa Monica lies the quieter and more peaceful Malibu. With its 27mles of beautiful sandy beaches and canyons, Malibu tends to attract the more romantic holidaymaker. Although many celebrities frequent the area, the main attraction lies in the fantastic surf and relaxed way of life.
