A romantic scene is being set on the pier this weekend: Dancing over the ocean at sunset, with the sounds of a salsa artist. The Santa Monica Pier plans to roll out a dance floor for Johnny Polanco y su Conjunto Amistad Saturday, Feb. 12 from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. Dancers from Albert Torres Events also will be on hand to entertain the crowd.

Be sure to pick up your “dance card” at the entrance and visit a participating pier retailer to enter to win “romantic getaway” prizes, including two round-trip tickets to anywhere Alaska Airlines flies, including Alaska, much of the West Coast and major Mexican cities; and romantic oceanfront dinners from the Lobster, Mariasol and Rusty’s. Participants can enter to win by picking up their “dance card” at the dance and visiting any participating pier business.
