You'll also enjoy year-round outdoor concerts at the village. On a sunny SoCal day, there's nothing like live outdoor music in the afternoon.

When the music breaks out, be prepared for some dancing in the streets. People here sure know how to have a good time.

Not only is Fisherman's Village known as being a fun destination to spend an afternoon, but it also happens to be the world's largest man-made small boat harbor. How's that for some handy SoCal trivia!?
