This first photo is from the main street we always took heading towards the pier looking down one of the side streets.
This main thoroughfair has an intermittent mix of stores and restaurants, and housing. It's a great tourist trap (and I love tourist traps), and also great entertainment for the local residents.
At the west end of the pier (we'd pass this before getting to the pier), there is a mini restaurant row. Fine dining with a view of the pier and ocean. Wonderful ambiance!
Though there are a few ways to actually park and enter the pier, this is the main entrance to the huge parking structure.
The rest of these will just be shots of the pier itself.

It looks like a fun place! It reminds me of Revere Beach, the next town over from where I grew up, but I was too young to go before we moved from there to fully appreciate it. My parents tell great stories about it!
This looks like a wonderful place to spend a Saturday afternoon. Thanks for taking us along.
Nice tour. Haven't been to the Redondo pier since the mid-1970s and it sure looks different.
T: What neat views of a super looking area especially while sitting in a snowstorm.
I agree with George it would be a great way to spend a saturday. Of course I think I could enjoy myself any day of the week. Great shots.
I used to like to go on Piers, when I was young, spend money on the slot machines.
Great shots.
An excellent view of California living! Nice slice of life and very warm looking for us frozen ones in the east and midwest :-)
I love going to the pier and walking around the shops. They usually have great places to eat too. Love your pictures.
I've never been to Redondo Beach, but now I'm putting it on my list. Thanks for the nice introduction!

It does not seem to have changed much since I was last there, just got older like me. LOL!!
Love how busy the pier is and how many people take advantage of the facility.
Ah Redondo Beach! Where the surf is up and the night life is good too.
Thanks for the mini tour. It looks like fun to be had by all down there.
Great photos and post!
Thanks for the tour, I enjoyed the pictures.
This looks like a fascinating place to wander! I could spend hours there easily, especially with water nearby!
Marvelous your World!
I liked very much!
My World is similar to your!
