Then the century's greatest road arrived. Route 66 was commissioned in 1926, carrying the country west from Chicago through eight states — and in 1936 the route was extended to Santa Monica, bringing America's Main Street to the edge of the continent. Dust Bowl migrants, GIs, vacationing families in station wagons: for decades the road delivered the nation to this beach, and the "End of the Trail" sign on the pier now marks the ceremonial finish line of the most famous drive on Earth — the official historic terminus sits a few blocks inland at Lincoln and Olympic, a fine piece of trivia for the road-trippers who made it all the way.

Today Santa Monica is California's beach and the end of America's road. Its story runs from the Tongva coast and the senator's 1875 resort, through the amusement-pier era, the birth of Douglas Aircraft, and the 1936 arrival of Route 66, to the solar wheel turning over the Pacific tonight. Wear a little of the place where the road runs out and the ocean begins.

Why People Visit Santa Monica

Santa Monica rewards visitors with a rare mix — a historic amusement pier, the western end of Route 66, miles of state beach, and one of America's great walking downtowns, all on a bright Pacific bay. People come for the pier and the End of the Trail, and stay for the sunsets off the bluffs and the easy, salt-aired grace of California's beach city.

Wear Local. Feed Local. Stay Classic.
