Mother's Beach in Long Beach CA questions?

Question

I'd like to visit "Mother's Beach" in Long Beach, CA. Where should we stay (something affordable)? How is parking? And how is the Long Beach Aquarium with a 2 year old?

Thanks so much!

Answer 1

You can stay anywhere, Long Beach isn't all that big.  Long Beach Aquarium is basically made for children.

Answer 2

Well actually Mother's Beach is down toward the South end of Long Beach....I think it is in Alamitos Bay somewhere. So it actually will be a little ways from downtown Long Beach....(BTW the other Mother's beach is in Marina Del Rey, so don't get confused.....)
