On the Sand

Beachfront Homes for Sale in Long Beach

Long Beach’s beachfront is calmer than the rest of the coast. A federal breakwater offshore keeps the surf small, so the city’s wide beaches feel more like a bay than open ocean, and swimming, paddleboarding and sailing take the place of surf.

The most sought-after beachfront homes are on the Peninsula, the narrow strip between the ocean and Alamitos Bay where some lots run from the sand to the bay. Along Ocean Boulevard, homes in Bluff Park and Belmont Heights sit on the bluff above the beach, and Alamitos Beach adds oceanfront condominiums near downtown.

Neighborhood guides: Long Beach Peninsula, Belmont Shore, Bluff Park.
