Iconic Television and Filming Locations on the Santa Monica Pier

Rides

The Park is best known as home to the iconic Pacific Wheel that towers over the Pier and surrounding beaches, and has been the backdrop to countless movies, music videos and TV shows. The Park has 12 amusement park rides on two acres of the Pier. Along with the Ferris wheel, guests can ride the West Coaster, the only steel coaster over the Pacific Ocean in the western United States. The Park is ungated, meaning guests to the Santa Monica Pier can enter the Park for free. Rides, games, attractions and other activities are all priced individually, or guests can select from a number of passes. There are rides for all members of the family, including Family Share rides for even the youngest guests.

Games

Pacific Park also manages the iconic Pier midway. Set inside the amusement park, the games line the Pier’s wooden boardwalk. Guests can show their skill at the games and win prizes like giant plush animals! The Pacific Park midway features classic boardwalk games like Whac-A-Mole and Water Race, as well as some fun games like Penalty Kick and Pier Planko, found only at the Santa Monica Pier.

The amusement park serves their famous, freshly-made funnel cakes every day on the Santa Monica Pier. Funnel cakes can be purchased at Funnel Cakes facing the Pier boardwalk or Scoops Ice Cream and Treats inside the over-ocean dining plaza. In addition to Funnel Cakes, the Pier is home to several restaurants and food stands serving classic California dishes like burgers, pizza, and tacos.
