Eclectic local businesses and classic architecture
North Alamitos Beach is part of the larger community of Alamitos Beach, a coastal enclave known for its well-established bars, cocktail lounges and coffee houses. “It’s a hip place for young sophisticates to live,” says Cynthia Voss, Realtor and broker associate with ReMax, who has been selling Long Beach since 1985. It may be a little farther from the beach than Alamitos Beach proper, but the neighborhood still gets the cool, salty breezes and moderate, year-round temperatures the area is known for.

While North Alamitos Beach isn’t quite on the coast, Alamitos Beach is within a mile of the neighborhood. “It’s a very nice beach. We have a breakwater wall, so the waves don’t get too strong.

Friends meet at the public courts for volleyball games, and cyclists ride against the ocean breeze.
