The Santa Monica beach community offers great shopping and dining. The Third Street Promenade and The Pier are major centers of activity. Here you can ride rollercoasters, shop, eat, fish or just take in the ocean air.

When you're ready to hit the coast, head north on the beautiful Pacific Coast Highway. A few miles north of Malibu is Leo Carillo State Beach. This unique inlet features rock formations and tide pools overflowing with some of the most unusual aquatic life in the world. If you're lucky, you'll also be able to see dolphins frolicking just offshore. When you're done here, head south to Venice City Beach.

Venice became world-famous in the 1950s after Santa Monica's Muscle Beach relocated to this region. The shoreline at Venice has a paved sidewalk for in-line skating and bike riding, and numerous street artists and funky performers.
