Santa Claus skydived into Surf City straight from the North Pole on Saturday, bringing two elves along for the reindeer-less ride.

After sticking his landing on the beach, Santa made his way to the Pacific City mall, the host for the occasion.

Fans of all ages partook of Santa hats, candy canes and holiday songs while Santa posed for photos.
