See Alamitos Bay from a truly unique (and romantic) perspective when you tour the area from an authentic Italian gondola. Gondola Getaway makes this special tour possible, as they offer you and your sweetheart a chance to see the harbor and the bayfront from a memorable vantage point. To add an even more authentic touch, the gondolier will croon upon request. The tour also includes complimentary appetizers to make your excursion even more relaxing.

Art isn't meant to just engage your eyes. Great art moves you, speaks to you, and inspires you to want to learn more about it. That's exactly what you will experience when you visit the Long Beach Museum of Art. Featuring some of the most impressive pieces of work rendered in various media, this popular attraction embraces both the creations and the creators of art. The museum itself qualifies as a unique piece of art in its own right, as its stunning construction and design allow the building to be situated atop a bluff which offers an equally mesmerizing view of Long Beach Harbor.

If you are looking to spend some time outdoors and on the beach but would rather steer away from the crowds and all that goes with it, opt to visit Alamitos Bay Marina. This area is quite beautiful, but it is nicely positioned away from all of the tourist attractions and resorts, which makes it a kind of hidden treasure for outdoor lovers. The views are absolutely amazing and the weather is agreeable nearly every day.
