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 your adventurous spirit takes a hold of you, but you don't quite know which sports and recreational activity to take on, let the friendly and informative staff at California Sport Adventures guide you through an amazing menu of high-flying activities that include skydiving, paragliding, kite surfing and much more. If you prefer to take the plunge instead, you can also choose from snorkeling, scuba diving, and surfing packages.
Amid the many places to see and things to do, the hustle and bustle of Long Beach is intoxicating and fun, but if you need a bit of a break, enjoy spending a little quiet time at the Earl Burns Miller Japanese Garden. This inviting garden attraction was dedicated in April of 1981 through the generosity of Mrs. Loraine Miller Collins in memory of her husband, Earl Burns Miller. Maintained in association with California State University Long Beach, the garden attracts several visitors who marvel at its lush landscape and colorful flowers.
