Day-by-Day Itinerary
Sunday

Monday
Unleash your inner beach bum. Today you get to embrace the coastal vibes of Santa Monica by sunbathing by the rooftop pool, taking a stroll to Muscle Beach or starting your day with critter yoga (a California must-do). For those more adventurous, try surfing or paddle boarding lessons as an add-on. We’ll lunch overlooking the iconic Santa Monica Pier with a view as delicious as the food. In the afternoon, choose from a selection of activities including bike riding along the Strand, a hike with sea view, laying out at the beach or enjoy high-end shopping on the Third Street Promenade. All this and more within walking distance of our hotel.

Your family hasn't seen Pride until they see how Disney does Pride! From rainbow themed snacks and merchandise to special photo ops, the happiest place on earth will be more fabulous with a sprinkling of Pride. Even for those who think they’ve done Disney before, this day won’t disappoint.
Friday
We’ve packed in a lot of activities the past few days, so today you get the day off.
