El Paseo

El Paseo

A mile of Palm Desert lined with galleries, independent boutiques, national luxury names and around thirty patio restaurants - the valley's main shopping street and its de facto arts district. A rotating public sculpture exhibition runs along the median, and a free shuttle loops the strip in season. Parking behind the shops is free and far easier than the street. Most stores keep short summer hours. El Paseo is shopping in El Paseo, Palm Desert. Filed under shopping, district. Notable for walkable, galleries. Hours: Most shops 10am-6pm. Best for an afternoon of browsing. Summer changes everything here: many independent bars, spas and shops cut hours or close for a few weeks between July and September, while the same places are busiest from January through April and during festival weekends.
