    As a whole Long Beach is a great city! Great beaches, lots of good eateries, and for the most part a good vibe. Just stick to the beaten path and be prepared to deal with small streets and wild parking situations - if you go off the beaten path then that expands to overall wild situations. ;)

    The picture doesn't capture how truly trashed this place is.

    What a truly terrible beach. It makes me so sad to see people treat nature so careless. You should leave a place how you found it, preferably better than how you found it! Not carelessly throw your containers, trash , etc right onto the sand, have some class people. That type of behavior is ghetto. This place is truly disgusting, I have seen less trash at the city dump. The entire beach is littered with shoes, trash, alcohol bottles etc. I even saw a quart of oil and used condoms. I wouldn't want my family, kids or fur babies walking on this beach for fear of them catching something.

    Goo public art and food all along the beach. We really enjoed all the walking up and down and seeing everything. It was a lot of fun and the sun was shining.

    Decent beach near the airport to walk to. We visited the four oil & gas islands on a walk before our flight out. There was ample free parking near the park; there are also restrooms near the beach. The water is not the cleanest and the beach is also a bit run down so I wouldn't choose this as an big excursion. There is a nice walking and biking path there.

    Cherry beach is a beautiful location in this area of Long Beach were you can watch the sunset, and just chill. The grassy knoll, is pleasant location for walking your dog, or to place lounge chairs for just good old fashion conversation. The beach itself, is not the most eye appealing.

    Love this city the beaches are well kept up, plenty of shops and restaurants to enjoy. Parking can sometimes be a task but overall everything is fairly close so taking a walk down the street is fairly pleasant. People walking are friendly even teenagers walked by us and used some foul language and realized we had our little one with us and apologized for his poop mouth.

    Like the city? Like a CLEAN city, Long Beach is all that and more, The sites you get in Long beach are BREATH TAKING! As you would be able to tell by just getting over there taking the big bridge. Worth your time coming out to see!

    I gave this beach 3 stars because how could anyone not love the beach. I took two stars away because it was one of the dirtiest beaches I've seen and I'm from New York. I saw a child playing with a hanging she found floating around in the water. The main reason was that my friend needed to use the bathrooms and there were no doors. It looked like something out of a men's room not ladies. I saw a bunch of women squatting over peeing and able to look at each other. I was able to see more than there faces if you know what I mean. I don't know how they was even legal. This beach isn't to rocky so you don't need water shoes. There was a ton of ppl out but not overly crowded. Maybe it was the time we went. It was around 4-7 p.m. We weren't planning to go to the beach but if I was to go to the beach again this one wouldn't be my first choice. If I had to again I wouldn't. Like ever.

    Multiple activities offer at the beach or near the beach. Great year round beach location to go.

    This is definitely one of my favorites among all the beach cities. Parking can be a little harried sometimes, but it's not too bad. The 2nd Street area is great for walking/shopping. If you're looking for a quiet respite, I would avoid The Pike shopping area as it can be a little crowded compared to other stretches of beach. Great bike/walk path that will take you from one of the b each to another.

Still nice but with a major upgrade. It's part of the aquarium of the pacific just along the harbor. There's a parking lot that's part of it but the payment situations was a bit of a mess. Paying with credit card on the machine was a hit or miss. Which i also found out from someone else there. It's probably easy just to do it from your phone. It's a decent size parking lot but there's also parking at the structure just next to the aquarium. It's a cute rolling hill park that looks out to both the queen mary, shoreline village and the harbor. Depending on what side you are. It's a cute little walk around with the lighthouse on top. There's benches scattered throughout the park for seating. There's even a little beach like path along the harbor. Regardless which side you are, the view is quite beautiful. There's also fishing that you could do on the pier. You'll see people about and about walking, picnicking, walking with their dogs or a stroll. Long Beach has its hidden gems and this place was one of them.

Between rebuilding our lives and our home, we simply didn't have the time or money for a honeymoon. When I saw the gondola ride advertised, I thought it would be the perfect way to celebrate our first wedding anniversary. We made the drive from Rancho Cucamonga, and traffic was horrible. By the time we arrived, we were stressed and running late. From the moment we walked in, the young lady at the front desk (she had blonde hair, and I'm so sorry I forgot your name! ‍) greeted us with the warmest smile. She immediately told me to relax and assured me everything was going to be okay. Then I realized my phone was on only 5%, and I asked if they happened to have a charger. Without hesitation, she handed me a portable charger so I could capture the memories from our very first gondola ride. Our gondolier, Waylon (I hope I'm spelling your name correctly! ), was absolutely amazing. He was kind, professional, and so knowledgeable about the history of the area. He made the experience even more special. At the end of our ride, the sweet young lady surprised me with a beautiful rose. Such a simple gesture meant so much. After the incredibly difficult year and a half we've had, this team completely turned our stressful day around and gave us a first wedding anniversary we'll never forget. Thank you for your kindness, your hospitality, and for reminding us that even the smallest acts of compassion can make the biggest difference.

The water is very calm, it's clean, and my kids love that there is a playground. There was a vendor walking around to sell floaties and we ended up getting a raft and the sticks for the raft for our kids. We did try to negotiate on the price but were only able to save a few bucks. I saw lifeguards walking back and forth often and it definitely made me feel safer to have the kids there. If you have young kids, I definitely say this is a great little beach to take your kiddos. Plenty of trash cans around and my kids gotta play with other kids. They didn't have to run super far with their bucket of water to make a sandcastle. Needless to say, we really liked this beach and definitely plan to come back. 2 thumbs up from this mom. Tips: *Parking lot available but you have to pay. *Free street parking. *Restroom available. *Lifeguard on site. * Vendors are always walking around (food, floaties). *There is a little playground with swings.

Warmer water, no waves, a perfect place to learn how to use most any type of SUP, and it's just a welcoming atmosphere overall. Today the water was nice and clean, but because it is in the bay the water quality can change depending as it's not flowing like a regular beach. The sand is also kinda different and sticky here, I'm sure it's brought in from around the corner, but it just seems kinda different here. Also, it's LB so be prepared to fight for your life for parking depending on the day and time. In all though it's a nice hidden gem. :)
