Redondo Beach

Welcome to Redondo Beach

Redondo Beach is the focus of many who want to be in the sun and near the ocean. Although a vibrant community in its own right, much of the Redondo Beach lifestyle is a blend of the neighborhoods, activities and people of the three Beach Cities of Southern California’s South Bay.

Redondo Beach is one of the three Beach Cities located in Los Angeles County, California, United States. The city is located in the South Bay region of the greater Los Angeles area. Redondo Beach was originally part of the 1785 Rancho San Pedro Spanish land grant that later became the South Redondo area. The city's territory has an unusual shape including an area along the beach (South Redondo Beach) and another strip inland from Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach (North Redondo Beach). The primary attractions include Municipal Pier and the sandy beach, popular with tourists and a variety of sports enthusiasts. The western terminus of the Metro Rail Green Line is in North Redondo Beach.

Redondo Beach is the focus of many who want to be in the sun and near the ocean. Although a vibrant community in its own right, much of the Redondo Beach lifestyle is a blend of the neighborhoods, activities and people of the three Beach Cities of Southern California's South Bay. Like its sister cities of Hermosa Beach and Manhattan Beach, Redondo's key lifestyle draw is the vast beach that links these three cities. Redondo was described as "The Gem Of The Continent" in the Los Angeles Daily Herald on December 22, 1887, which remains true to this day.

Surfing is a key element of the South Bay lifestyle year-round; it is common to see locals catching waves on both Christmas and New Year's Day. Powerful winter storms in the Pacific ocean can turn typically placid and rolling South Bay waves into large waves, a natural draw for the local surfing population. The rocky shores of Redondo Beach are home to various tide pools teeming with marine life, making it a fascinating destination for nature enthusiasts and families.

The city hosts several cultural festivals and events, such as the Kite Festival and the Lobster Festival, which celebrate the community's seaside heritage with food, music, and activities.

From casual seafood joints on the pier to upscale waterfront dining, Redondo Beach offers a diverse culinary scene with options that cater to various tastes and preferences.

71,060 people live in Redondo Beach, where the median age is 41 and an average individual income is $69,935, based on data provided by the U.S. Census Bureau.
