The city lists the lot at 1550 Pacific Coast Highway, Santa Monica, CA 90401, with daily parking charged at $20 per entry (santamonica.gov). Its location on Pacific Coast Highway makes it a practical choice for drivers approaching the Santa Monica Beach Path from the north. The lot is open from 6:00 AM to 2:00 AM on Friday and Saturday, according to the city’s published hours (santamonica.gov). Those hours give visitors an early start and late finish, while the daily rate is easier to budget than repeated hourly payments during a longer visit. The attraction is 0.9 mi from Santa Monica centre, so the final approach should be planned as part of the parking decision. ## Other Official Parking Choices Near the Pier Santa Monica’s official beach-lot information identifies Beach Parking Lot 1 North as a city-operated option on Pacific Coast Highway (santamonica.gov). For drivers who want a city facility close to the waterfront, this lot provides a defined destination rather than relying on curbside availability. Its daily entry charge is suited to a visit lasting several hours. Those streets form the final access route for the pier area, where Pacific is located, so they are useful landmarks when approaching from central Santa Monica. Drivers should use marked facilities or legally signed street spaces along the route and avoid treating loading areas or restricted curb space as general parking. Show map of Santa Monica ## Parksy Parking Spaces Close to Pacific Parksy lists two secure spaces 0.3 mi from the site: a garage at Shore Hotel for $15 a day and parking at 1515 Ocean Ave for $15 a day. Both are useful for drivers who want a reserved space within a short distance of the Santa Monica waterfront rather than depending on an open curb space. A secure garage on Ocean Ave is also 0.3 mi away at $249 a month. Palisades Promenade offers covered garage parking 0.4 mi away for $15.80 an hour. The closest choices are the two 0.3 mi spaces, while the 0.4 mi garages provide more covered options. ## Rail and Walking Routes to the Santa Monica Beach Path Santa Monica centre is 0.9 mi from the attraction, making the final walk manageable for visitors who park away from the immediate waterfront. The Parksy spaces at 0.3 mi and 0.4 mi offer shorter approaches than parking farther inland, with the two 0.3 mi options providing the shortest listed distances. Metro’s Expo Line guidance for the attraction identifies Expo/Sepulveda, Expo/Bundy, and 17th St./SMC as rail parking lots, with further information directed to Metro (pacpark.com). These stations are useful park-and-ride reference points for visitors approaching Santa Monica by rail, although the published guidance does not give walking times from them to the site. From central Santa Monica, continue toward the Santa Monica Beach Path and the pier area for the final approach.
