Useful Tips
- Purchase a TAP card in advance online to skip the ticket vending line and enjoy seamless transfers between Metro Rail and Bus services.
- Check the real‑time arrivals screen; buses to Santa Monica run every 10‑15 minutes during peak hours, but service can be less frequent on weekends.
- Use the dedicated electric‑vehicle charging stations in the underground garage if you’re renting a car or have a hybrid vehicle.
