Discover cannabis culture in Santa Ana, CA

Located in Orange County, Santa Ana is a gorgeous city with plenty of things to do. For those visiting with children (or even without), the Discovery Cube is a must-see. This modern science museum has over 100 hands-on exhibits to play with and explore. Adventure City is a local amusement park that is sure to entertain the whole family as well. If you’re looking for more culture, head to the Orange County Museum of Art for an impressive display of modern art. If you want to find some green space, be sure to visit the Santiago Oaks Regional Park nearby for endless trails and biking opportunities. Santa Ana bonus: for those visiting the OC, Santa Ana is also the only city allowing the sales of recreational cannabis.

While California legalized cannabis for medicinal use in 1996 and then for recreational use in 2016, much of the state has been reluctant to implement sales. In fact, only one-third of California’s municipalities have allowed cannabis sales of any sort. Luckily, Santa Ana has legalized cannabis sales and the industry in town is thriving. Anyone over the age of 21 may purchase up to 1 ounce of marijuana or 8 grams of concentrates, and those with an MMJ card may purchase up to 2 ounces at a time. Stores in Santa Ana may only operate from 7 AM to 10 PM, but be sure to check on a dispensary’s website for hours before going. If you don’t want to leave home, you are also able to order weed for delivery from several dispensaries.
