Even though Belmont Shore tried to break away and establish itself as a city in its own right, it is still technically a part of Long Beach, California. No matter, really, because fans of this impressive district know that in addition to excellent shopping, dining and entertainment, there are plenty of great family fun attractions to enjoy here, too. There's free fishing off the Belmont Memorial Pier, beach volleyball, a dog beach, a jet ski ramp, a paved path for biking and skating, Belmont Pool and lots of other great amenities that make spending a day here fun for the whole family.
Long Beach's proximity to the Pacific Ocean creates a natural setting for aquatic sports. One of the most popular is water polo. The city is actually the home of some of the world's best water polo players that all began playing for Wilson High School. Many have since gone on to play on nationally recognized water polo teams that include the Cadet to National teams.
