Dorothy Green Park

Amazing experience. Santa Monica has to be one of the bike-friendliest places I've visited in years. It's actually more efficient to ride around town because you can rent/park the e-bikes/e-scooters just about anywhere.

Dorothy green park is a wonderful green oasis. Not only for the grassy areas but there are bike rentals and a Perry's right there. We even got to see them shoot a episode of millie here.

A great summer day with friends at the beach. Make sure to get there early because all of LA is using the same parking lot. Also limited parking in the neighborhood.

This park is great for kids of all ages. There are small slides to accommodate toddlers and bigger slides for your more coordinated kids. There is one set of swings for small babies and another set of traditional swings for everyone else. A small rock climbing wall is fun to teach your kids how to climb. The center playground is covered by shade which is nice on hot days. Peak times are usually from 8am to about 12pm and then there is hardly anyone between 12-2pm after two there is an little after school rush of kids but not as bad as the morning. Another great thing about this park is that it's so close to the beach. So you can walk to it before or after going to the playground.

There was so much parking on a cloudy Sunday. Free parking for handicap but $15 for a day. Close to the pier...just a 7 minutr walk. You can rent bikes on either side of the park. There's a cute cafe with sand and beach chairs set up to enjoy your snacks. They closed up early with the rain. The bathroom werent that bad but no place to dry your hands and no soap. So pack some wipes or sanitizer. The toilet was nice and soft though. A playground for little ones is also close by. Theres a few benches for eating and watching life at the beach.
