The area offers boating, yachting, surfing, kiting, and fishing off the pier, while visitors in a quieter mood can window shop on Main Street, pop into the Bay Theater to see a foreign film, or relax over scones at the tea room.
Nature buffs will enjoy the Seal Beach National Wildlife Refuge, a salt marsh that is home to many endangered bird species and is an important resting point for migratory birds. For those with an appetite, the Lions Club hosts two of the community's biggest events each year — the Pancake Breakfast in April, and the Fish Fry in July. Other events, such as the Summer Concert Series, Classic Car Show, Sand Castle Festival, Kite Festival, and Christmas Parade, are held throughout the year. The official website maintains a schedule of upcoming events.
