Los Angeles County Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich is again sponsoring the Summer Beach Bus, taking people back and forth to Santa Monica Beach.

“The summer beach bus provides families a convenient, low-cost alternative to driving to the beach on summer days,” Antonovich said.

The discount service runs June 12 through September 2 on Wednesdays, Saturdays and Labor Day, and costs $4 per round trip for children and adults. Children under the age of 12 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Senior citizens and people with disabilities pay $2 per round trip.

The bus stops at the Castaic Sports Complex in Castaic at 9 a.m. and Richard Rioux Memorial Park in Stevenson Ranch at 9:30 a.m. on the way to Santa Monica. It leaves Santa Monica at 3:30 p.m.
