So much to do in the breezy South Bay

Live Music
Concerts in Pollywog Park from July 4 thru Labor Day, there will be concerts on the Redondo Beach Pier each Thursday and Saturday, 6-8 p.m.

It is the birthplace of beach volleyball and a haven for surfers.
The South Bay is comprised of three seaside cities, Hermosa, Mannattan and Redondo Beach.

The activities happens by the beach because locals believe there is" no life east of PCH."
The South Bay is divided into two main social areas, Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach (neighboring Redondo has a few spots but overall is far less lively). To the casual observer, it would be hard to distinguish one city from the other. The MB/HB border is marked by the "90210 House" on The Strand, the beach house used in the television show.
There are, however, differences worth noting. Hermosa's nightlife mixes in twentysomethings from Los Angeles with youthful locals. Bars in Manhattan are largely for locals and here, that's a good thing for everyone.
Men in both places are notoriously casual dressers, somewhat of a frustrating but reluctantly accepted fact among the women. Shorts, t-shirts and sandals are common attire in most places. Hey, it's by the beach!
