One of the biggest reasons to visit Long Beach is its proximity to Los Angeles. If you stay in a Long Beach hotel, not only will you save money, but you will only be an hour away from Universal Studios, Disney, and a great number of other Southern California destinations. The airport in Long Beach flies out to 13 nonstop destinations and both the Los Angeles and John Wayne airports are less than half an hour away. Talk about being centrally located and the hotels in Long Beach are some of the most beautiful you’ll ever see.
The Queen Mary
The Queen Mary used to sail the oceans as one of the world’s first class ocean liners. Now it is the perfect place for you to take the family for a historic tour. One of the things you do not want to miss is the Princess Diana collection. Children of all ages, including the adults in your party, will truly enjoy traveling back in time by seeing the state rooms as they looked in the 30s, 40s, and even the 50s.
Plenty of Outdoor Activities
There is plenty to see and do along the shoreline and waterfront in Long Beach. You will find there is 5 ½ miles that you can hike, bike, or even roller skate. You don’t have to stay on land either, you can rent a boat or kayak. There are beaches galore where you can sunbathe, or get on the water in a paddleboard. You can even go out and do some whale or dolphin watching.
Try the Museums
The Long Beach Museum of Art itself is worth a visit. They offer workshops, local artist demonstrations, and tours. Do not miss the only museum that showcases Latin artists, The Museum of Latin American Art. All of this and more is what surrounds you when you stay at the hotel CURRENT in Long Beach.
