Long Beach City Beach is Long Beach's main public beachfront, facing the southern Pacific Ocean coastline along Ocean Boulevard between Alamitos Beach and the Belmont Pier. The beach, which is also referred to as Junipero Beach, was once known as one of Southern California's best surfing spots until the 1940s, when breakwaters were constructed to protect the beach from ocean currents. Today, the beach is better utilized as a swimming beach, though visitors should check on water conditions with lifeguards before entering the water. A paved biking path is available for cyclists and joggers, with ample grassy space offered at the adjoining Bluff Park.
