Take a more traditional route when wooing your loved one. Gondola Amoré offers traditional Venetian gondola rides from the North Side of Redondo Beach Pier. Glide along the water in a decked-out boat as you are serenaded by your knowledgeable cruise guide, or bring your own music. Each cruise offers a basket of fresh bread, fruit, and cheese. You may opt to order champagne or bring your own wine for a little something extra on your romantic date.
