 You've seen this stretch of beach in 100's of films: folks on inlines & boards (both skate and surf) as well as bikes, the flashy Marina and the oddities of Venice.

The path is about 8.5 miles, north from Washington Blvd., to Temescal Cyn Rd. Thos Guide pp 630, 631, 671. Access is continuous.

     Santa Monica path north and south of Pier Place needs more signs that say, Bikes Only, and should be written in Spanish and Farsi because Mexicans and Iranians like to stand in the middle of path the most, without any clue that bikes are trying to get by. It helps to have a horn on your bike for this stretch of the path. Connect to the South Bay trail on the other side of the Marina.
