Once Long Beach, whose webcams can be viewed on this site, was the most popular and prestigious resort.

Excellent climate, long and wide coastline, beautiful nature contributed to the rapid development of the city's tourism sector. This happened in the first half of the 20th century. Restaurants and bars, hotels and entertainment centers were built in the city. The population grew rapidly.
However, with the advent of the "Great Depression", the popularity of entertainment faded significantly. The enormous destruction in Long Beach was brought about by the strongest earthquake of 1933, when the fairy-tale city was almost destroyed to the ground. Since then, these places have been significantly deserted. And after the deposits of neiti were discovered here, the tourism sector ceased to be city-forming. And industrial giants have replaced numerous objects of entertainment infrastructure and improvement.

In the 60s of the last century, the US Navy was based on the territory of Long Beach.

In those days, a large aircraft plant was opened, and strategic facilities of the military base were equipped.
Today, the city is home to a huge number of enterprises, headquarters of famous companies and tourist infrastructure, which together give these places a unique and controversial look for many people.

One of the interesting attractions of Long Beach, which keeps the memory of the years gone by, when it was still a popular resort, is the Queen Mary transatlantic liner.

The vessel was launched in 1934. And in 1967, his last 1001st voyage across the ocean took place.
During her history, Queen Mary managed to visit not only a passenger ship, but also a warship. This was the case during the Second World War. During this time, the liner transported about 80 thousand soldiers.
The key operation, as a result of which the ship was awarded the Diaper status, was the transportation of 22 thousand children and women of the military who arrived in the United States.
After the war, the ship returned to its original functions and was used for the transport of tourists for several more years. In 1967, Queen Mary entered the city harbor for the last time to stay there forever. Today the ship houses a hotel, a restaurant and a museum.
