As part of the City of Santa Monica’s expanding in-person services, the Annenberg Community Beach House begins its re-opening next week. We welcome the community back to the courtyard and splash pad starting June 15, stand up paddleboard rentals, and swim class registration for mid-July. In the City Manager’s Proposed FY 2021-23 Biennial Budget, the Beach House pool is scheduled to reopen in July.
"Next week we continue our re-opening of City facilities and community amenities with the first set of re-openings at the Annenberg Community Beach House,” said Acting Assistant City Manager Susan Cline. “Summer is more fun at the beach and the Beach House is a beloved place of respite and safe, family fun.”

When visiting any City of Santa Monica facility, face masks, and physical distancing are required. Members of the public should not come to the Beach House if experiencing any COVID-19 symptoms or under a quarantine or isolation order. Public spaces will provide instructions for safe distancing, but the public’s support in being mindful of COVID-19 best practices, including frequently washing hands and using hand sanitizer, is appreciated.

The Annenberg Community Beach House at Santa Monica State Beach is operated by the City of Santa Monica. The Beach House is made possible by a generous gift from the Annenberg Foundation, at the direction of Wallis Annenberg, and in partnership with the City of Santa Monica and California State Parks. Additional funding was provided by the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development.
