Redondo Beach — Attraction in Redondo Beach

Redondo Beach’s beach is my perfect summertime getaway from the warming temperatures! The Strand south of the Redondo Beach Pier is clean, uncrowded and cool! The beach has the extended end of the Marvin Braude Bike Trail, another great way to see the waterfront, while getting a workout! It’s accessible via the bike path, or public pedestrian paths, such as the Ainsworth Court Staircase. That’s by the parking lot at the south end of Veterans Park. Further south are walkway paths at Sapphire and Topaz Streets and Knob Hill Avenue, between the large apartment and condo buildings along Esplanade. South of the buildings, still along Esplanade, is an open stretch of beach with metered parking, random staircase access and restroom facilities down thru Torrance Beach. Here the beach tends to be a bit more crowded. I’ve mistakenly parked at the first open space, only to see the ramp or stairs leading to the sand far away.

So much trash!!! It was so disappointing to see. In about 30 minutes I picked up so much trash from the water and sand. It was embarrassing. And I couldn’t believe people were willing to go into the water with the amount of trash in it. I saw a toothpick floating on n the water and i couldn’t pick it up. Too small. Absolutely disgusting. Humans truly need to wake up. How much trash is enough to act? Plastic is already in our drinking water. Now, you can’t even get into the water without seeing plastic and trash....
