Long Beach, CA ~ Long Beach, CA - The City of Long Beach is excited to announce the opening of the popular inflatable "Wibit" aquatic playgrounds at Alamitos Beach and Bay Shore Avenue on Friday, June 14, 2024. These waterplay structures will offer residents and visitors free, family-friendly fun and active water play all summer long until Monday, Sept. 2.
According to Mayor Rex Richardson, these aquatic playgrounds have been a hit with families and have enhanced recreation at the City's beaches.

Vice Mayor and Second District Councilwoman Cindy Allen expressed her excitement for the return of these fun floating structures at Alamitos Beach. "Residents have been eagerly waiting for their comeback all year," she said. "I'm glad they are back for the summer, and I look forward to seeing everyone climbing, jumping, and having a blast in the water."
Third District Councilmember Kristina Duggan also shared her enthusiasm for the Bay Shore Wibit at Alamitos Bay. "This attraction draws residents and visitors alike to enjoy free summertime fun on these fantastic floating playgrounds," she said. "It's another great addition to Alamitos Bay along with a new concession stand, swim ladders, and swim distance buoy markings."
