Q. We are new in town, and want to check out this year's fireworks show! Is it better to go right down to the beach? What's the parking situation for such a popular holiday? Are there other places that are less crowded with an equally good view? Any helpful hints would be great. Thanks!
Answer
I live in Long Beach and people start arriving at noon to set up their canopies and tents to watch the fireworks from Bluff Park. They are shot off across the harbor at the Queen Mary. From Bluff Park you can see the San Pedro, Seal Beach and Huntington Beach fireworks. Last year, for some reason, we couldn't hear the booms from the fireworks. Fireworks aren't much fun without the booms.
According to the Cabrillo Beach website there is a free shuttle to watch the fireworks. You can park at 22nd and Miner Street. It is fun to watch the fireworks being shot off over the water. The reflections are very pretty.

Tent Camping on the Beach?
Luo
Has anyone ever camped on the beach?
I am considering taking the kids up to Lake Erie to camp on the beach there.
I don't have a "special" beach tent. I want to use my smaller nylon dome tent.
Will I have trouble with this?
Answer
Do not need any "special tent". We are using a 2 man pop up camping tent(link below) and it work well for beach camping.Wind can and will be a problem. We actuall had one of those canopies get away from us in some high winds at the beach , but that was just a daytime setup. I imagine the wind gets pretty rough there, unless you can get back and out of it somehow. if there{s a lot of night wind the tarps can get pretty noisy. Try to find a sheltered are if there is any. But beach camping is great fun and pretty comfortable. You might need to empty the tent and shake out excess sand every day or two though. Night time may not be so bad though.
