Hotchkiss Park

Park · Ocean Park

"Pick-Up Food Options: Lady & Larder, Tre Mani, Layla Bagels We love Hotchkiss, because in an area dominated by tourist-filled beaches and The Promenade, this tiny two-acre green space in Santa Monica feels like a true neighborhood park. Located only a few blocks away from Main St., Hotchikiss never gets too crowded and has a smooth, sloping lawn that offers partial views of the ocean and plenty of space for a picnic with friends. Don't rule out a dip in the water afterward. " - brant cox, arden shore
