Santa Monica in June
Great time to visit
June brings summer crowds but also classic LA beach weather once the marine layer burns off. Morning fog can be disappointing, but afternoons deliver postcard-perfect conditions.
Weather
June starts the famous 'June Gloom' period with marine layer lingering until afternoon most days. Once it clears, you get gorgeous sunny skies and perfect beach temperatures. Rainfall becomes almost nonexistent.
