Dive into a world that will captivate your senses at the Aquarium of the Pacific. Marvel at the incredible number of species that make their home beneath the ocean's surface as you learn about them with the help of the many interactive exhibits, attractions, and impressive aquarium tanks that are housed here. From the frigid waters of the North Pacific to the warmer Tropical Pacific, come and celebrate all the life that lives within and beside the Pacific, the world's largest ocean.

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.

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.
