Alamitos Beach

LONG BEACH CALIFORNIA

The Alamitos Beach community was planned by John W. Bixby after the Rancho Los Alamitos was acquired by he and his cousins who where partners in the Bixby Land Company. When describing the area in 1988, Mr. Bixby said, "Alamitos Beach is not Long Beach's rival but her Crowning Jewel." It was the intention of Mr. Bixby and the original residences that Alamitos Beach would be a separate city. It remained as a separate townsite until annexed by the City of Long Beach on November 30, 1909. Ocean Boulevard is the Jewel of the Area now, as it was in 1988 with its high rise deluxe condominiums, magnificent homes, and access to the beach.

Long Beach´s Alamitos Beach continues to grow. It is within walking distance of Downtown Long Beach and is conveniently close to freeways, without the feeling of being near the traffic. But more importantly it remains affordable. You can still purchase a $300,000 condo, or if you prefer, a multi-million dollar condo with endless ocean views.

This very residential area is dotted with funky quaint shops and restaurants. Experience a genuine old-fashioned diner when you eat at the Park Pantry. Ready to enjoy this diverse area´s perfect weather? Visit Bixby Park located on Cherry Avenue and named after the founder of Alamitos Beach. This 12 acre urban park has a playground, mobile skate park, community center and volleyball courts.
