Famous Landmarks
Queen Mary
33.7701°N, 118.1937°W
The Queen Mary, an ocean liner launched in 1934 by John Brown & Co in Glasgow, was the world's fastest ship from 1936 to 1952 at 1,019 feet and 81,000 tons. Anchored in Long Beach since 1967 as a floating hotel-museum, it carried 16 million passengers and served as a troop transport during World War II under the nickname "Grey Ghost".
Aquarium of the Pacific
33.7701°N, 118.1937°W
The Aquarium of the Pacific, opened in 1998 and the largest in California, holds more than 12,000 animals representing 500 species from across the Pacific, from tropical to subarctic. Its iconic 2019 Honda Pacific Visions wing added a 360-degree immersive theater with 16 million pixels — an educational manifesto on changing oceans, welcoming 1.5 million annual visitors.
Naples Island
33.7701°N, 118.1937°W
Naples Island, an artificial residential archipelago designed in 1903 by Arthur Parson on Venice's model, comprises three islands connected by pedestrian bridges and crisscrossed by 3 miles of navigable canals. Its upscale homes line the waterways where authentic gondolas imported from Italy operate — the West Coast's only professional gondolier service since 1982.
Why gift a star map of Long Beach?
Gifting a star map of Long Beach means immortalizing a moment on the California Riviera, between maritime legends and Pacific sunshine.

A present as luminous and salt-tinged as Los Angeles's southern coast.
The sky of Long Beach
At 33.8° north latitude on the Pacific coast, Long Beach offers mild evenings favorable to observation and a perfect ocean horizon to track planetary sets. The historic Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles is just 20 miles north, and Mount Wilson Observatory — where Edwin Hubble discovered the universe's expansion in 1929 — dominates the San Gabriel Mountains a 1.5-hour drive away.
