Alamitos Bay 

Information

Alamitos Bay has one of the great locations in California, if not the United States. Boats are protected by a series of offshore breakwaters and a natural bay. Sailors appreciate the rapid access to open water, prevailing winds and close proximity to Catalina Island. Sailing conditions in Long Beach are practically perfect year round. That is why Long Beach has been and continues to be the home of the Congressional Cup, Transpac and Olympic trial races.
