3 days in Santa Monica Itinerary

A famed resort town since the early 20th century, Santa Monica sits on the picturesque Santa Monica Bay, bordered on three sides by the city of Los Angeles.

You'll find plenty of places to visit near Santa Monica: Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum (in Simi Valley) and Six Flags Magic Mountain (in Santa Clarita). There's much more to do: make a trip to Santa Monica Pier, examine the collection at The Getty Villa, look for gifts at Bergamot Station, and kick back and relax at Santa Monica State Beach.

For photos, more things to do, traveler tips, and tourist information, refer to the Santa Monica online trip itinerary maker.

In February, plan for daily highs up to 66°F, and evening lows to 51°F. Finish up your sightseeing early on the 10th (Sun) so you can travel back home.
