On a nice day, this is a great way to see practically the entire Southern California coastline from high above. Great fun, especially if you're playing host to out-of-town guests, or if you are one!
Solar panels you see mounted around the park help power the Pacific Wheel and its evening light show. The current Wheel was installed in 2008, but the 1996 original was the world's first solar wheel.
Seen on many Hollywood movies ,The Pacific Wheel is a 9story Ferris Wheel that's more than 100ft. above the ocean at its highest point.Not the biggest on planet but pretty cool considering its location
I love busy places like this one. You should try it at the sunset time amazing view ????
Yes it is not for kids only; must get in if you want to enjoy the lovely skyline of the southern California and the Pacific Ocean ????
A little pricey but a long ride with stops at the top to take in the views and get pictures. Definitely worth it.
The world only solar powered Ferris Wheel! Great fun place. Hang with friends, eat, get beers and enjoy the view . Awesome sunsets !
It is inexpensive and you get to go around a lot.
The pacific wheel is quite beautiful at night, adds a little something to the city .
It's beautiful at night. Also, there are lots of Pokemon Go pokestops
There are restrooms behind the ticket stand. Keep the ocean blue!
Fantastic and beautiful
This ride costs $5 per person which gives you about ten minutes riding the wheel itself.

Being a roller coaster fan the West Coaster is one of my favorite rides, this steel-track roller coaster races along the side of the pier, the view of the ocean as you dip and dive is phenomenal - ℳ????????♍
