I love the Promenade, even if it is a bit touristy ! The have tons of shops ranging from the high-end to more affordable , and lots of people watching opportunities! Very talents performers as well !

I loved it, a lot of shows, shops & stores, fantastic location in Santa Monica next to the beach , I bought all my family gifts from there, plus the LA sunset from there is everything ❤️

Abdullah K

Good for chillin, walking around, having a cup of coffee and shopping. The atmosphere is surrounded with talented people in music , art and dance . Just enjoy 'em.

Janet R ????????

For a dinner on a budget, go to the food court in middle block for sushi bar & falafels . Upstairs is Wolfgang Puck Express & Subway. You can sit overlooking the Promenade.

Chris Davis

First time to LA and this was my first stop! So much to do and see within walking distance. Shopping, eating, people watching , sunsets and nice weather. Obvi a more touristy area. But feels like Cali

Dorothy Kucich Johnson

We thought we would find one of a kind boutiques here but it's just an outdoor mall . Everything that I can buy at home. It's great if you want to shop at Urban Outfitters, Sunglass Hut, etc. ????

If your looking for a saudi hangout come here every Sunday

Another great tourist attraction , the Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica, CA has a great variety of cafes and shops, and also makes for a nice walk, skate or stroll through the square.

Jon Menager

One of the best places to shop and eat in Santa Monica. You wouldn't be doing yourself right if you skipped out on stopping by! A must-see if you're visiting in the area.

Sama

In love with this place. It's always good to go for a walk their morning or night ❤

Saygın Karabay

Loads of street performers , generally not viewed by anyone :) still a must see in Santa Monica. Olm küçük Bodrum gibi, daha az kalabalik hali gibi. Bi de her taraf çiş kokuyor, şaşırmayın.

The parking lots are laid out more logically than you think: even-numbered structures are on the ocean side (2nd St), odd numbers are on LA side (4th St). The lower the #, the farther from SM Place.

Meshari

One of the attractions that all tourists and nearby locals visit. All shopping stores are there. Many good talents of street performers ????????

I love outdoor shopping centers and this is the one! Right next to the beach , fun, energetic place, great selection of stores and there's plenty places to eat out! Love Santa Monica!

Raul

Great outdoor mall right in the middle of sunny Santa Monica with street performers and loads of shops, you can also visit the farmers market early in the morning until midday! Lovely place!

Hala

lovely place to have a lovely evening, prefer going there in the weekends.

Mario Leme

Oh I LOVE this place. Beautifully decorated and many amazing stores and restaurants . Also, the street performers are great!

Joni

Free street salsa social on Sundays starting at 6pm! ???????? Between Wilshire Blvd & Arizona Ave. Friendly dance social for all levels of dancers. Find "3rd Street Promenade Salsa Familia" on Facebook.

Kat Levy

Lay on the beach @ Santa Monica, grab lunch on 3rd street promenade & finish the day w some shopping! High end & affordable shops. Be sure to stop by Brandy Melville & the pier...best cotton candy !

Jason Calacanis

You won't find good food here and shops are no better than the mall in your town . Complete tourist trap--skip it. Go to Abbot Kinney in Venice, Montana in Santa Monica to see locals shop and eat.

Begum Tekin

There are lots of street performers that make the atmosphere lively and fun. Parking in the Santa Monica Place is free for the first 90 minutes.

Material Girl

I just love coming here. You can go to the beach before or after, have a drink, shop.. literally everything is here. I should probably just move to Santa Monica instead of living in WeHo.

Colin Stark

Nice street mall with some great shops and restaurants as well as a diverse selection of street musicians . Huge Apple Store.

TOMS

Why, yes! That *is* a dinosaur @ an outdoor mall . There are street performers Saturday, too, that run the gamut. Like jugglers; singers ; drummers; dancers? They may be here...Lorin's on 3rd, too!

Noanni R.

Great place for shopping and beautiful sight to see... The beach is two blocks down major plus !

Hamoud AlDabbous

This place is really a good place for people watching and late night hanging out . Can't get bored with this place ????

Jackson Tsai

Great place to walk around, shop, eat and spend an evening here. I visit this spot every time I'm back in Cali~!

Connie Chiu

Great for strolling on a sunny day. It's like physically walking through radio stations with all the different street performers .

RC ⚾????????

Have a few hours to kill? Walk down 3rd St to eat great food, have a drink, people-watch, or see a show from one of the street performers . Great place to spend some time with friends!

Jarrod Fernandes

Parking in the structures is affordable . 3rd St is nicely located, and very central if you are planning to walk to the pier or to the beach . Don't rush your time here. Take it slooooow.

Jelisa Beaty

This is like a shoppers heaven. I love it here, all your favorite "mall " stores with a mix of some high end retailers .

Hamilton Fortuna Bautista

Is just a pedestrian street with stores and restaurants but for some reason if you're in Santa Monica, is so easy to end up here.

Alicia Bispo

The best place to shop I tell ya ! My daughter loves brandy Melville and I love the H and M here . People watching is always fun here too..

Saud'????????

The street is very good for shopping and walking , everything was nice there :)

Roger Ma

Perfect spot to bring your friends from out of town ! You've got tons of cool performers and plenty of shops!

Julian Nam

via LA Mag: This is an outdoor mall with ocean breezes. The rebirth of SM Place has infused these 3 blocks with much-needed energy. 2 hours of free parking at structures off 2nd & 4th streets.
