Our family's favorite place to go for Italian seafood. Staff is mostly Italian and we always have the best service of any restaurant we have ever been to. A casual family friendly restaurant where you get your moneys worth. A definite feel good place for us. Food and drinks are fantastic.

Great place for lunch. Excellent sandwiches to take with you if you are going on a picnic or to eat in. The 1/2 sandwiches are plenty for one person.

Take out sandwiches. A true San Pedro icon. It is not our family's favorite (we prefer Sandwich Saloon), but many locals love this place for their sandwiches.

Very unique, hole in the wall place for chowder, burgers and beer. It is in the heart of the Wilmington marina and LA Harbor and is a floating restaurant. That has true character. We love this place because it is so unique.

Drinks & Nightlife

Recently opened hot spot in town. Closes relatively early but has some great local crafted beers. They don't serve food but you can buy food from an outside food vendor or food truck. Very family friendly, allow dogs. Same parking lot as Los Angeles Crafted. Which is a nice spot to do some shopping to buy crafted items.

The Korean Bell is a gift from the Korean government and is absolutely beautiful. It is located at the Angel's Gate Park which is excellent for kite flying and enjoying the ocean view. Right next to Angel's Gate Art area which is home to many local artists that you can see their lofts and art. Also right next to the Marine Mammal Rescue Center which is fantastic for kids to see seals and sea lions that are being nursed back to health before being released back to the wild.

We love this beach because you see everything being done here from swimming, surfing, boogie boarding, snorkeling, wind surfing, jet skiing. Short hike but such a worthwhile beach to go to because the crowds aren't there. It is "Right After Torrance" beach which is much more crowded. Excellent place to go and enjoy the water and sun.

Walking distance from the house and across the street from The Korean Bell. Nice park to have a picnic in plus a nice children's playground area. During the summer you can hear "Concerts at the Beach", they have a couple different car shows every year and Shakespeare by the Sea is held during the summer time. Also right next to Sunken City.

Great street to walk along to see the ocean. Walk by the cliffs past Pt. Fermin Park, see the Korean Bell and walk near Ft. MacArthur Museum, as well as Sunken City. May see some local wildlife of coyotes and peacocks.

Sightseeing

From the World War period, a small museum that discusses local history. You can also learn about all of the hidden tunnels that are under our city that go for miles.

Small aquarium at Cabrillo Beach that is perfect for small children. Learn about local sea life and then walk across the parking lot to go to the beach. Ask about Grunion runs to see if they are going on while you are in town. A must do! The aquarium is by donation which makes it very budget friendly.

Part of the city that fell into the ocean and is currently not open to the public. However, people have discovered it as a place to do some interesting 'graffiti art" and an interesting place to explore.

Where we go for fresh fish to cook for Saturday dinner. Fish fresh off the boat. People come frome hundreds of miles away to get their fish here - yet we are only minutes away and can go every Saturday if we would want to. Market consists of approximately 6 market stalls that sell fish to the public only on Saturday mornings prior to 6 am. Rest of the week it is closed to the public. Prices are extremely reasonable. Kind of a cool thing to experience and have an early breakfast on your way back. Hopefully, there will be outside food vendors selling tamales or Filipino foods, as well as fresh vegetables. You have to be there typically between the hours of 4 am - 6 am.

Great to see seals, sea lions that are in the process of being rehabilitated due to health reasons. Eventually they all will be released back into the ocean. A really nice spot to spend a view minutes especially with kids to learn about marine life.
