Summary
Santa Monica’s buzzing with activity—planes are flying more often over the city as flight schools ramp up, even as the airport prepares to close in 2028. The Ocean Way Festival hits the beach Sept. 26-27 with music and food, but expect parking and bike path tweaks. Good news for ocean lovers: kelp forests are rebounding after sea urchin removal projects, now covering 80 acres and reviving marine life. Want to help? Join the Coastal Cleanup Day on Sept. 19 at Santa Monica State Beach. And for Labor Day, police will be extra visible with a DUI checkpoint to keep things safe.
