Pacific Ocean Park 1958 - 1974 
a Southern California Cultural Icon

Classic footage from POP from YouTube

Information about this video from YouTube post:

Nice 3 minute video of Pacific Ocean Park, aka POP. Located in Santa Monica / Venice California. This was taken from a 1959 documentary called "Where The Mountains Meet The Sea". 


Rides shown are Sea Serpent Roller Coaster, Sky Ride, Sea Circus, Banana Boat Ride, Midway, Double Ferris Wheels, Diving Bells, and many others in the background. 


POP was finally taken from us in the early 1970's to make way for, well nothing..It's just beach now. I stood where it was last summer and closed my eyes and could hear the laughter and fun that was there one time. You would not even know it was there now, except for just a few signs stating "No Swimming - Possible Underwater Obstructions". 


Visit www.rippop.com for the growing fan base of what was a great amusement park.

North of famous Venice Beach, Ocean Park, California, was also founded by Abbot Kinney.
Like Venice, Ocean Park started as a place of ballrooms, amusement, piers, delicatessens, and street fairs.

 In the 1950s, it was home to the Lawrence Welk show. A decade later, Jim Morrison and the Doors were regulars at "The Cheetah." Today Ocean Park is central to Santa Monica's booming creative industry.

That's not really a surprise since the place (Santa Monica) has long been popular with creatives, from Charlie Chaplin and Mary Pickford, to painter Richard Diebenkorn, Oliver Stone, and Arnold Schwarzenegger.
