Long Beach

Locate just outside of Los Angeles and the gayopolis of West Hollywood, Long Beach is a fabulous destination with a thriving LGBT community.

For all you Queens and Maries out there, there’s one iconic landmark you must explore.  The Queen Mary is an Old-time Ocean Liner that is permanently berthed across from the Shoreline Village and Downtown Long Beach.  When you step onto the ship it’s like stepping back into time.  The views on and around the ship are awesome, so bring your camera.  There’s also a bar, gift shop and plenty of other attractions on-board.

There are great events to check out whenever you visit the city.  Long Beach offers a terrific Jazz Festival, popular Gay Pride Celebration and AIDS Walk. The Pink Party in May is a unique LGBT event that supports the Center Long Beach’s Mentoring Youth Through Empowerment Program. 

A host of amazing accommodations to choose from in the surrounding area ensure you won’t miss out on the nightlife excitement. 

Sun, fun, great culture, what are you waiting for?  Plan your trip to gay Long Beach today!
