Long Beach Attractions

While staying at the Hyatt Regency Long Beach, you will be at the doorstep of downtown's most vibrant dining, shopping, and entertainment venues. If transportation is required, downtown Long Beach's Passport Shuttle is designed to provide a direct connection between the Pine Avenue retail and restaurant district, Aquarium of the Pacific, Queensway Bay, and Shoreline Village waterfront destinations. Shuttles run between these locations as often as every ten minutes, every day. And the fare is free! A taste of downtown Long Beach attractions are listed below.

 

Queen MaryQueen Mary
Long Beach is the proud home of the Queen Mary, one of the world's most luxurious ships to sail the Atlantic Ocean. See restored areas that have been under wraps since the final voyage in 1967, including the Isolation Wards and the Machine Rooms, and journey through the first-class swimming pool, a popular spot for ghost sightings. You can also board one of the Cold War's hottest weapons, the Russian submarine, code name: Scorpion. Sign up for the free "Behind the Scenes" tour when registering for the conference!
