Santa Monica in February
Not the best time
February is Santa Monica's least predictable month weather-wise. You'll have the place mostly to yourself, but pack for four seasons in one day.
Weather
February stays cool and damp with the most unpredictable weather patterns. Rain comes in bursts, often clearing within hours. The marine layer hangs around longer, making mornings feel chillier than they actually are.
