3rd Street Promenade
About
The Third Street Promenade is a three-block pedestrian shopping street in downtown Santa Monica with brand stores, restaurants, movie theaters and plenty of street performers. The topiary dinosaur fountains are the classic meetup spot, and city garages give you the first 90 minutes free.
Jasmine says
Three blocks in the sea breeze: an open-air pedestrian promenade just five minutes from the ocean, with street performers, a handmade market and accents from everywhere.
A seaside pedestrian shopping street: street performers are the resident act, and the dinosaur topiaries are the meetup spot.
