Seasonside is a community app for one place: San Pedro, California. It exists to make one thing easy: finding, joining, and hosting recurring hobby groups with your neighbors. A book club that meets monthly. A walking group on Saturday mornings. A game night that becomes a tradition. Not one-off events with strangers you'll never see again, but the kind of regular gathering where familiar faces slowly become friends. WHAT'S INSIDE Groups: Browse sixteen interest communities, from readers and outdoors to food, games, parents, and pets. Join a drop-in club anytime, or commit to a season club, a small group that meets together through a real calendar season (spring, summer, fall, or winter), then wraps up and decides what's next. Events: See what's coming up across San Pedro, RSVP in two taps, and get a reminder before it starts. Open events welcome anyone in the neighborhood. Plaza: The town square. Local happenings, things neighbors are giving away, questions for the neighborhood, and local businesses. Chats: Group conversations and direct messages with the people you actually meet. No follower counts, no public performance. Shelf: Your personal record of life in San Pedro. Collections, local challenges like the San Pedro Starter Pack, and the small mementos of a season well spent. Hosting: Anyone can host. Seasonside handles the RSVPs, the reminders, and the scheduling, so being the person who brings people together stops feeling like a second job. WHAT SEASONSIDE IS NOT Not a dating app. That's a structural rule, not a suggestion. No algorithmic feed deciding what you see. No streaks, no engagement bait, no pressure to open the app daily. If you come twice a week and make it to one gathering a month, that's success. The point of Seasonside is what happens off your phone. STARTING IN SAN PEDRO Seasonside opens one neighborhood at a time, and San Pedro (zip codes 90731 and 90732) is first. If you live somewhere else, you can't join yet. We'd rather do one town well than every town thinly. Local means local. Seasonside is free to join. Join during our first season and you'll carry a Founding Member badge for as long as the app exists. Friendship, in season.
