Redondo Beach Pier curves around the waterfront at Fishermans Wharf in Redondo Beach, south of Los Angeles. Its horseshoe shape gives you a changing look across the Pacific, the marina and the shoreline as you walk. Fishing, small shops and seafood restaurants make it easy to turn a stroll into a longer stop; the nearby International Boardwalk adds more places to eat and browse. Come for a calm walk by the water, watch anglers at work or sit on a bench with a view. Weekdays are a quieter choice than busy weekends.
A pier shaped around the waterfront
Redondo Beach Pier sits at Fishermans Wharf in Redondo Beach, south of Los Angeles. Unlike a straight pier extending out from shore, it curves around the waterfront in a horseshoe shape. The walk takes you alongside the water, with views across the Pacific and the marina.
The pier is part of a larger waterfront area that includes the International Boardwalk and Redondo Beach Marina. The boardwalk has restaurants, cafes and shops, so you can keep exploring after walking the pier. Fishing is part of the scene too: anglers line the water, and you can pause to watch them try for a catch.
Walking, fishing and browsing
A visit can be as simple as a walk and a seat on one of the benches. The wide paths make it easy to stroll along the waterfront, and the ocean and harbor views change as you follow the curve. People also come to fish, browse the shops or spend time with family by the water.
Small shops along the pier sell gifts and souvenirs. The nearby boardwalk gives you more places to look around, with a fish market among the area’s seafood options. Some places sell seafood to take away, while restaurants provide a sit-down meal. If you are visiting for food, the variety makes it possible to choose between a casual stop and a longer meal.
Seafood and seasonal events
Seafood restaurants are a major reason to stay longer than a quick walk. The waterfront has casual food counters as well as sit-down dining, with fish and shrimp among the seafood options. The fish market is another stop to consider if you want to browse the catch on offer.
The pier also hosts events during the year. The Festival of the Kite takes place in spring, and seasonal programming has included live music. Check current event details before planning a visit around a particular performance or festival. For a more relaxed walk, a weekday is a better bet than a busy weekend.
