There are WAY too many tourists swarming the Third Street Promenade morning, noon & night - summer, winter, spring & fall.

I always like it here! They offer great shopping choices and good places to eat and grab a drink to take a little break in between stores. They also have plenty of parking thats close to everything.

This is one of the many reasons I love where I live. This is what you see in the movies, the clean sunshine palmtree filled scenery. With alot of beautiful people, shops and restaurants, if you are travelling through be sure to get here! Enjoy!

Bars, restaurants, shops and street entertainers ... What's there not to like ??? Liked everything, disliked nothing !!

A couple of cool stores but nothing earth moving. Street performers have various levels of talent. My six year old did get to shake hands with a monkey for a dollar! Restaurants are just average. Stick to the cheaper fast casual places to eat.

The stores are for the most part all the same stores that every city has. But the street performers were worth the walk up and down.

Loved browsing and shopping at this outdoor shopping centre. Great stores and restaurants to choose from. Loved the dinosaur sculptures. Very clean.

.We visited in April. There was a very disverdse number of shop. My friend found a birthday present for her husband

If you are hungry it will pay to book as the busy season is happening now. and the pier is extremely busy
