    Great Ave for learning, kids and fun. We will definitely be back to enjoy the scenery and educational atmosphere. Snacks too.

    Naples Island and their beautiful canals is a must when in the Long Beach area. It’s only a 15 minute drive from the convention center and allows you to walk around and see gorgeous views.

    nice ride to the island . This was my first time there. Bery clean and friendly staff. I have an issue with the parking. Ot was suppose to be approximately $25.00 . Not thinking when I booked i came in an hour after the 24 hour period and was chsrged
    close to $50.00 that in addition to the $80.00 round trip boatride is a rip off. we shouldn't have to pay for both.

    We had dinner reservations for Parker's Lighthouse that evening, so we spent some time at the shops here beforehand.
    There are a few good little shops here, but not a ton. The hat shop was my favorite.
    They also had a band playing that night, so we got to sit back and watch them for a few as well.

    If you don’t like dogs, do not visit this beach! Were are a dog family and really enjoyed seeing the different types of dogs and all of their personalities. Great beach to spend a few hours or even a day. Even better beach if you want to bring your puppy with you. Mobile treat vendors move through about every 20 minutes with plenty of options to try. Really easy parking (download the app) with plenty of close spots. Several sand volleyball courts as well.

    This is one of the most amazing places to visit. When you walk around. You don't even know you're in a city. It's beautiful, peaceful, and fully every historic significance. Highly recommend a visit and step back into history

    What a pleasant small setting. A great blue heron landed and fished in the pond and humming birds abounded. Lovely blossoms were drifting like a gentle snow beautifully landing on some of the greenery. Plenty of places to be present, contemplate, and be. Tip: Have low expectations as it is a small space, well worth the visit. Tip: Great place for a book to bring.
