The Santa Monica
Pier Pressure
Scavenger Hunt

Pier to Promenade, here’s Santa Monica’s best adventure!

The legendary Santa Monica Pier and the lively Third Street Promenade are the twin anchors of a hunt that reveals history, movie locations, fun stores, and, of course, great views of the beach and beyond. You and your team will follow a trail of clues and answer fun, funny questions that uncover the secrets and quirks of the area.

Highlights of this Santa Monica scavenger hunt include…

• A surprising message in Palisades Park
• A massive storm that nearly eliminated the pier
• The 1916 carousel featured in The Sting
• A shoot-out in a not-OK corral and hungry Big Bertha, both in the arcade
• A still-standing 19th-century tavern
• The secrets of the Camera Obscura

No knowledge of Santa Monica and its quirks is necessary for you to play—and even to win. You just need sharp eyes, comfortable shoes, and great teamwork skills.

What players are saying about the Santa Monica Scavenger Hunt

“I wanted to thank you for all of your help. You are awesome and provide excellent customer service! Our hunt host, Joshua Bott, was awesome too! We had a large, rowdy group of 25 and Joshua was able to answer everyone’s questions and take control of the situation so people would pay attention to him. What can I say? Everyone was excited! I would definitely recommend you and Watson Adventures to all of my family and friends. Thanks again for a great experience and a wonderful time.”
