Seaside Lagoon Redondo Beach
Redondo Beach Lobster Festival is a great event for the whole family. With activities for the kids, live entertainment for the parents and delicious Maine lobsters for to all, you’re sure to have fun. Plus, there will be arts and crafts booths and other local vendors offering their wares. Tickets are available online at www.lobsterfestival.com.
One of the highly anticipated events of fall is the annual lobster fest held at the Seaside Lagoon in King Harbor. The event is certainly focused on food, and they’re plenty of that, but also has a variety of craft beers, local crafts, music and more. Tickets can be purchased in advance and the admission fee allows you to enter the festival without purchasing lobster meals so you can enjoy the live music, shows, entertainment, vendors, and seaside location overlooking the Redondo Beach Harbor.

Life in the South Bay is a mix of upscale and quirky, and both can be great. One of my favorite places to take people is Old Tony’s on the Redondo Beach pier.
Downstairs offers a nostalgic lounge vibe with lava fireplace, red chairs and big views.
Upstairs is a 360 degree “crows nest” bar 360 degree views.
I wouldn’t call it upscale but that’s certainly not why you go there and the quirkiness is what makes it fun. Don’t forget to try the mai tai.
There is always an incredible energy in sunset hours as people cram in to take in the panoramic ocean views from the 360 degree glass enclosed bar. It is a truly unique experience as it sits up above everything else on the pier so it almost feels like being on a ship at see. Not only do the views feel like being on the see but you can actually feel the pier shake just a bit when waves collide with the pilings below. Old Tony’s is on the Redondo pier in King Harbor which is close to the border between North Redondo and South Redondo Beach. It is within walking distance of the homes and condos of The Village and Seascapes I, II and III.
