SANTA MONICA, Calif. (KABC) -- Just in time for a pleasantly warm holiday weekend, Santa Monica's Pacific Park has opened back up with rides after a year.

Visitors will once again be able to take a ride on the iconic Ferris wheel and roller coaster at the end of the popular pier.

Under COVID-19 safety guidelines, the mini amusement park will limit its guest capacity in order to allow for physical distancing and require face masks.

All visitors are encouraged to go online to buy tickets for the attractions ahead of time. For the time being, wristbands for unlimited rides and annual passes will not be available for purchase.



The park is normally not gated, but a temporary fence was erected around it to control the number of people coming in and out of the area.
