On the west coast of the US in the state of California, is the city of Long Beach. Given the location, you'll also be spoilt with beautiful coastline, take your pick from a plethora of beaches to soak up the sun through the sunny climates almost year round. The City of Angels, Los Angeles, is half an hour drive away if you rent a car from Long Beach Airport, giving you opportunity to explore Hollywood, the Walk of Fame and celeb spot on your trip. There is the Disneyland Resort just half an hour away from the airport itself and there are plenty of attractions and restaurants in and around the park to make for a couple of days of entertainment.
The Long Beach Waterfront is a great attraction in the area, not only for the sand and sea, but there are endless entertainment opportunities like cinemas and the GameWorks which is full of arcades and restaurants. It's a great location to watch sports as well, should there be any big games on during your time there. If you're hiring a car from Long Beach Airport, head straight for the coast where you can catch a ferry out to Catalina Island. This serene location is great to spend a weekend, the small destination means the only cars on the roads are golf buggies which you can hire to navigate your way around the island.
