About Long Beach

Long Beach is a diverse coastal city with its own distinct identity. Home to the historic Queen Mary ocean liner, a thriving LGBTQ+ community, and the Aquarium of the Pacific, it offers an authentic alternative to LA's more touristy beaches. The revitalized downtown features craft breweries, excellent restaurants, and a growing arts scene. The East Village Arts District and Naples canals add unique character.
