While you are in Long Beach, don’t miss the opportunity to absorb the sights, sounds, and aromas of your hometown.
A jaunt around town will make your heart skip a beat as memories leap at you.

 

DOWNTOWN LONG BEACH

There is much to see and do plus great ways to get around.

 

Passport: The free little red bus that will connect you to downtown Long Beach attractions.

 Pine Avenue: The location of many restaurants and historic buildings. The Promenade is adjacent to Pine Avenue to the east.

 The Queen Mary (QueenMary.com)

 Aquarium of the Pacific (aquariumofpacific.org)

 The Pike at Rainbow Harbor: restaurants, small shops and a Ferris wheel

 Shoreline Village: shopping, dining, harbor cruises, and bike rentals

 Water taxi docks: Aqua Link and Aqua Bus

 

Aqua Link: The red, yellow, and purple boat ferries passengers to destinations around the harbor that are listed above, Belmont Pier, and Alamitos Bay Landing. The cost is $5.00. Wheelchair boarding is available.

 

Aqua Bus: The bright red boat that makes five stops along the harbor waterfront: Aquarium of the Pacific at Dock 4, The Queen Mary, Shoreline Village at Parker Lighthouse, Pine Avenue Circle at Dock 7, and the Hotel Maya. The cost is $1.00 and is wheelchair accessible at most docking locations.

 

Transportation schedules are available at Long Beach Transit (lbtransit.com)
