Relax on some of the best sandy beaches in Los Angeles County and participate in many outdoor sporting activities.

Redondo Beach is one of the most popular beach cities on Santa Monica Bay. Try water-based activities, including kayaking, surfing and paddleboarding. Visit a historical museum and see documents, artefacts and photographs relating to the city. Enjoy fresh seafood and international cuisines in a pier restaurant with spectacular views of the coastline.

Take a self-guided tour of Redondo Beach Pier and King Harbour. Spot a California grey whale on a whale-watching charter or learn about marine life in an aquarium. Redondo Beach also features Riviera Village, an excellent shopping area with over 300 stores, including top-rated restaurants, bars and independent fashion boutiques.

SEA Lab is a marine conservation facility that aims to educate visitors on environmental awareness and ecology. Feed fish in a tide pool or tour the lab with a volunteer guide. Discover coastal plants growing in the native plant nursery and learn how SEA Lab volunteers work to restore local habitats.

Take a short walk to Seaside Lagoon from the centre of Redondo Beach. This large saltwater lagoon is located on King Harbour. Play beach volleyball, go swimming and relax on the sand. Book a sport fishing charter in the nearby Redondo Beach Marina and take on some of California’s best game fish, including white seabass and barracuda.

Learn about this remarkable city in the Redondo Beach Historical Museum. The museum is located in the 1904 Queen Anne House and features many artefacts relating to the beach city and its surrounding areas. Take a scheduled group or self-guided tour of the museum.

Drive to this beach city about 8 miles (13 kilometres) from Los Angeles International Airport. The city has a range of upscale waterfront hotels and less expensive beach inns.

Redondo Beach is the perfect destination for visitors looking for a relaxing coastal atmosphere with a wide range of outdoor activities.

Close to other beach cities and LAX. Safe area.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

Had a great day wandering around the boardwalk, eating seafood and drinking. But be clear - this hotel is a good 25 minute drive away. The name is a complete misrepresentation. It is closer to the airport than the beach.
