Redondo Beach Marina

Fantastic and prompt response!

King Harbor in Redondo Beach is a lively waterfront spot with a scenic boardwalk lined with shops, bars, and restaurants. Two local bars offer great live music on weekends, adding to the festive vibe. Seafood fans will love the fresh lobster, king crab, and oysters—live and cooked right there at the market. Paddle boards kayaks and other water sports vehicles can be rented or take a glass bottom boat tour of the harbor to watch sea lions play. The balustrade along the beach is perfect for catching stunning sunsets. A nearby grocery store makes stocking up easy after a fun-filled day.

Staff incredibly helpful with mooring; really peaceful mooring; the children's regatta delightful

Amazing! First time, Will do it again.

It was the perfect mooring! Thank you!

Thx guys , Happy a hollidays

We really enjoyed our stay and patronized the local businesses. Our view of the harbor and city was delightful

We really enjoyed the Redondo and Hermosa beach area. Lots of stuff to do and see within walking distance! The mooring lines are slimy, and it would be nice if the dinghy dock would allow you to lock up your dinghy, but I understand it's a working dock and they need to be able to move it. We will for sure be back to enjoy the beach towns.

The moorage balls are not well maintained. There is excessive kelp growth on the lines that add considerable weight. Making difficult and messy to secure the moorage lines. They are well over due for management to have them cleaned.

We were assigned mooring B-1. The line between the front achor line and the rear anchor line was severed so we couldn't attach the rear line. We moved to mooring B-3.

Redondo beach marina is very Beautiful the stay was very nice and peaceful I will definitely be coming back again

I arrived single handed in a 35ft Beneteau. Moorings clearly laid out. I was assigned A5 by Dockwa but pick-up float rod was snapped at water surface level— impossible to pick up. Went to next buoy but that was also broken. Third time lucky. I tried calling Redondo Beach Marine Office for help but they were closed for the weekend. Left VM for immediate assistance but nobody called back. Bottom line is that the moorings are very convenient for access to the harbor front restaurants but the upkeep of the moorings is extremely poor. Even the mooring lines were not well maintained and covered in algae and dirt .

Unfortunately our boat was bombarded with sea gullls and bird poop as the Orca (abandoned vessel) was on a ball next to A4 and has become a sea gull platform - completely covered in bird poop. Hoping that boat will be removed soon:) Otherwise we always enjoy our stay out on the moorings!

Our stay in King Harbor was great. The mooring reservation system was easy this time and we were one of the few boats in the Harbor. We rented and toured for 2 hours on E bikes followed by a delicious dinner at Blue Water Grill.

Left my boat on a mooring in Redondo Harbor for less than 48 hours. It was completely covered in seagull poop. The boat looked like it had been there for over a month. Disgusting. 5 hours of cleaning. Not worth the trip. Never going to moor there again.

We were sad to see how the area has suffered.

Enjoy an effortless mooring and relaxing evening.

This is a well protected anchorage, great place to come in off the ocean and take a break. Pretty much everything you could possibly want is within a half hour's walk. We are nature lovers, so we feel right at home with the seals, pelicans and comorants. Watching the local sailing community enjoy the water was a plus- daily lessons, Thursday night beer can races with the family. We have really enjoyed our stay here, including the local bar R/10 Social House.

Everything went smooth. Thank you

The mooring pin came off the mooring line. It was connected with electrical tape! Fortunately there was an available spot nearby for us to use.

Took a mooring here. Ground tackle was in good shape. Moorings very close together, but properly laid out. Peaceful anchorage but not very scenic. Recommend being as far north as possible in mooring field. Was a good rest stop on our passage north.

Easy to find the mooring and pickup. Used a different dock for dinghy and when looked at from shore side it was not quite clear that dinghy dock from mooring was dinghy dock for moorings.

First off I want to say this review does NOT reflect on dockwa. This is strictly about the moorings and locations. The moorings in King Harbor are unfortunately situated next to the sea lion barge, jetty rocks, AND bait barge. The smell from the bird poo alone is enough to literally make people sick. Not to mention the noise from the sea lions. The entire marina has a BAD sea lion problem so make sure you block off your swim step and close your transom door!

Terrible! The pick up wand on the mooring was broken so it was very difficult to pick up. The mooring was rigged way too big for our boat so we were swinging around 90 degrees in each direction almost hitting a commercial fishing boat moored next to us. Then we had sea lions jumping up on our boat's swim platform. After just 3 hours on the mooring, we abandoned it and put the boat back in its slip in the Portofino marina. A total waste of $90 charged for three nights at the mooring.

Thank you to all the staff for a great experience. I ended up having to leave my dinghy at the hoist for 48 hours because i needed to attend to an emergency on land and was very pleasantly surprised it was sitting there safely after two nights. i think i will return quite often to spend a few days in the best marina on the west coast. Thank you all.

Lines where relatively clean as compared to a past stay, probably due to the recent dredging. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Easy reservation, good communication, easy dinghy dock access.

Easy to access and centrally located.

Small craft warnings prevented me from arriving at A-6 Redondo. Tried to contact Dockwa for cancelation and/or rescheduling..no response

Awesome! The boat parade was beautiful this year!

Stayed on a mooring for one night. Was very pleasant. Other than the sand (slime) line being tangled around the mooring ball which took several minutes to clear, everything else was perfect for our short stop.

Redondo Harbor has so many things to offer. The mooring balls are inexpensive and the harbor is well protected and relatively quiet. It is close to good restaurants, lovely beaches, fun events, shopping and marine supply. Most importantly, the community was so welcoming. The marina staff were very helpful and friendly. We also appreciated the harbor patrol. We felt so lucky to find such a small town vibe in one of the busiest areas in the US.

Its my home marina and I love it

Easy to reserve and access. Appreciated the email detailing where yo find things in the marina.

Mooring easy to access. The marina responded quickly on the app to questions. Lots of restaurants to choose from. The dinghy dock is not located where it says it is in the picture.

Excellent service in the face of a hurricane. I have stayed here several times always a pleasure

Very helpful and responsive

Harbor patrol came out meet us and say hi, making sure we’re OK! Peaceful and beautiful spot, we will be back!!!!

We arrived about 1:30 on Saturday afternoon looking for our assigned mooring B2, after a few laps around the marina we realized that there was a boat moored in our space. They said that the harbor patrol put them there the night before! with no 42 foot moorings left to grab and the harbor patrol not answering we were forced to grab an open mooring for a smaller boat and rig it up to stay safe. Not a comfortable feeling at all

Good morning, I am contacting you today due to the terrible and illegitimate experience I have had at Redondo Beach marina. I have been harassed by harbor patrol since the day of my first reservation. Multiple times a day they asked me if I rented the space, which I clearly did. I told them I have a receipt and every day they continued to pressure me, question me , and complain that other boaters did not pay. After the 7 legal days I was told I am allowed to book at he office I was informed that I could extend my trip or speak with the harbor about anchoring for the allotted time. I went to the harbor at the end of my reservation and inquired about anchoring my boat, they told me I had to speak with Craig the dock master and gain his approval. Due to the fact that the office is closed on Sunday and I was to speak with him Monday morning. This was an agreed upon conversation from the fire chief a British man who claims to be the harbor master and also he same person who has been harassing me daily. I come back to my boat from land and they follow me around for at least 10 minutes and then approach my boat where I have my 2 year old son with me. They told me why am I still here legally I'm only allowed 5 days within the harbor and that they didn't not care that I paid for 7 days. They then went on to use racially charged language at me and my family (we are an interracial couple). Then when I told them I did not understand anything that was happening he told me that we would not be welcomed back in the harbor. This went on for about an hour to which concluded that if I do decide to come back I have to contact the fire department directly and at there discretion they will let me anchor or rent a ball....... I feel that I am being treated unjustly under the law and not being given the same opportunity to anchor my vessel or use the marina to the same capacity as other boaters. If you would please let me know that you received this message I would appreciate it because it is not fair for anyone to be discriminated against.

Stay was great! I already reserved a second stay.

Could not find the moor info on any of my confirmations and could not get in touch with anyone. Because I wasn’t able to confirm the location of the moor I rented, I wasn’t able to use it.

Great. Just dirty lines

Aside fro the 62 degree wind it was great. very clean and easy to use moorings. I would go back.

Great service and easy mooring

Ropes are very dirty. Time change. Nice marina

Mooring was location was great, staff at dinghy dock were helpful and friendly. Mooring 'wand' was very short making it hard to pick-up and the rope on the bow and stern 'loops' was too big to go through my boat's hawse pipe.

Perfect! Had a great time on the mooring!!

It was great!!! We are planing on coming back soon

Easy peasy. Barking sea lions all night. Slimiest of slime lines. Still da bomb.

Fast response, extremely accommodating, super friendly staff.

Easy access, friendly and helpful staff, great restaurants. We enjoyed the day there with family and friends.

Very calm. We are loving our stay at Redondo Beach. Easy access to everything we need. Very helpful staff. Great place for a layover.

The mooring A13 had no sand line to the rear loop so was unusable. I took another mooring A6 and phoned both Harbor numbers for reservations and got voicemail or call back. Eventually I sent a message to doles and got a delayed response at sunset saying to leave as that was booked to another boat and it gave three alternates ( one of which was being used by someone who had the same defective mooring problem as me. But by this time the light was gone so I gave up and returned to my slip, I only used your mooring service one night I do not expect to be charged for both

Easy calm spot to stay at. Enjoyed July 4th here. Have 2 compliants. The seal dock is annoying. Loud seals all night. Secondly the moooring lines aren’t used often and are covered in growth. Wear gloves.

Our club was using many of the moorings this weekend for an event and the marina could not have more helpful with assisting us. Thank you so much for helping our event go smoothly!

I didn’t end up going, so I requested a refund or credit, and they didn’t respond to my message.

Poor location. Entered harbor then decided not to stay there. Pump out Dock in terrible shape and obviously neglected. Two cleats almost entirely pulled out.

Nice mooring ground, few boats, good privacy. Plenty of restaurants nearby.

Great customer service. Both in the office and the boat hoist. Dock area was a little scary. Lots of drinking and rough looking guys. Your security looks a little soft. We are originally from Stockton so was not a big issue. Should consider contract with actual PD for foot patrols.

Very nice and outstanding service. The best of the best 👌

The best place and service ever. Love it

Simple process. Friendly Harbor Patrol. Nice Harbor.

The experience was amazing. Jennifer from Redondo Beach Marina was responsive to our request, professional, and made our overall experience amazing. Thank you Jennifer!

Stay was pleasant. Easy to find your way around.

Love this place. We had a wonderful night on one of their mooring balls.

The tri[ was very enjoyable. The moorings are easy to use and secure. We went on some lovely walks from the marina and got some good go-food to boot. We also found the Harbor patrol to be very helpful. My only negative comments are: 1. The moorings are downwind from the breakwater and the pelican poop smell is really bad; 2. the dinghy dock was hard to find, but we did ultimately locate it (we think) in Basin 3. All in all, we had a great time!

Beautiful mooring! I would highly recommend!

It was great! Weather didnt quite cooperate but not their fault. The boats around us were friendly, the Harbor Patrol was friendly. We will do this again!

Good inexpensive place to stop while traveling along the coast.

Only moorings available. Dinghy dock is long distance from moorings.

Always a great place to Moore! Perfect spot to spend the night or weekend! Lots to do!

Great communication with the marina manager. Contacted me several times to make sure everything was ok.

The mooring had sea life growing on it and the spreader line was so filthy that it took me hours to clean the mess from my boat. I will not use those moorings again until I am assured that they have been cleaned and properly maintained.

Awesome trip, always a pleasure hanging out in front of the Portafino and the beach scene at the pier. Be back in August, Thanks.
