Old Town Main Street is Seal Beach’s commercial heart—a charming, walkable strip of local shops, restaurants, and boutiques running from the residential neighborhoods down toward the pier. The Seal Beach Pier, one of the longest wooden piers in the western United States at 1,865 feet, is the community’s defining landmark and the gathering place for the Annual Christmas Tree Lighting each December. Leisure World Seal Beach—one of the country’s largest 55+ residential communities with more than 9,000 residents—occupies the eastern portion of the city and runs its own extensive internal events calendar throughout the holiday season.
