Photograph of the Santa Monica beach and the Pacific Bath House south of Castle Del Mar Beach Club, [s.d.]. The sandy beach stretches across the middle of the image and is crowded with hundreds of people. The Pacific Bath house is at center. It is a light-colored, two-story building with rows of rectangular windows around its perimeter. Several large beach clubs are in the distance at left, and two small eateries are at right. There is a crowded parking lot full of early-model automobiles behind the bath house. Legible signs include, from left to right, "Pacific Bath House", "Fish Dinners", "Coca Cola Sold Here", "Frost", "Christopher's Ice Cream", "[?]'s Place", "Sea Food", "Creates Golden Tan", and "Prevent".
