More LB info

Facing the sea/oil islands: 5101 East Ocean Boulevard, Long Beach, CA near Bayshore, there are metered parking lots and a ramp across the sand toward the bay - where catamarans sometimes launch for less of a sandy wheel drag.

It is south of the LB Pier, a bit, near "Ripples,” and will get you to the Oil islands or out south toward Seal Beach Pier. Faces Island Chaffee. And nearer where the bay and San Gabriel River meet the ocean. See Greg's note above it this thread.

For Alamitos Bay cruising'/or a longer hump out to the bay:

5750 Boathouse Lane, Long Beach, CA Pete Archer Rowing Center, nice low dock for launching, and lots of parking, though some skullers may get all "surf punk" on you. (Well, it happened just once out of 10 launches. I act like a very humble guest there even though it appears to be a public dock. Strongly suggest if a rowing event is on, chill. They should get full dibs. So far, not rowing assn. membership for yakkaloppers. Haven't seen a rec' yakker yet.)

Also a Harbor Patrol office and boat there on weekends.

5437 East Ocean Boulevard, Long Beach, CA near Gondola Getaway and sort of across from the above Ocean Bl. spot, A mellow beach launch with hose and rack for boat hosing. Some free and some metered parking.

A yak around Alamitos Bay is 3 mi. About a mile from the inner bay launch points to where the bay and San Gabriel River meet the ocean. Alway see guys fishing off the jetty. Legs.
