From the port area, the sunset is not over water due to the topography. If you stay in San Pedro, you can go to White Point and view the sunset over the mountains on top of the cliffs or down at the beach. Or, you can hike up to the old bunkers on the hill on the other side of the road to get a higher vantage point. On a clear day, you can see Catalina and beyond. Many locals walk their dogs there and go there to see the cruise ships leave on departure days.

Other places high up in Pedro are Friendship Park and the Korean Bell Pavilion

I like to take people to Nelson's at the Terranea Resort in PV for a sunset cocktail. It's a beautiful setting.

If you are staying at the Crowne Plaza you may be able to view it from the roof...next closet would be the Korean Bell or Point Fermin Park.

 

We take our dog to Terrenea and go to Nelson's for a quick bite and a beer, watch the sunset and then go home but this requires a car from San Pedro.

If you have a car, drive over to Palos Verdes and have dinner at Admiral Risty's. A great view, and good food. If it is clear, you can see Catalina. There are also good views from the Point Vicente Interpretive Center (whale watching center and museum) near there, although I believe they close prior to sunset.
