One Direct Flight Away
Across the globe, a direct flight away, Santa Monica is LA’s legendary beach city. It’s famous for its shimmering, 3.5-mile stretch of coastline, its sandy beaches and the underwater adventures and watersports that await there.
It’s the kind of place that makes your eyes shine, where days segue from leisurely seaside brunches to sun-kissed hours spent on the sand and surf, followed by dinner and drinks at a destination restaurant.
Santa Monica is also the perfect base for your adventures in southern California: where anything is possible and dreams don’t just happen when you sleep. Discover a world of breathtaking natural beauty, heart-pounding adventures in epic scenery, world-renowned wine and culinary delights.
