Long Beach Shoreline Marina

The Long Beach Shoreline Marina is a marina based in Long Beach, California. Constructed in 1983 to host the sailing competitions in neighboring Los Angeles, the marina used the five gangways of this shoreline. It is located near the Long Beach Convention and Entertainment Center which hosted the fencing and volleyball events during those same games.

The marina is now part of the Shoreline Yacht Club and was renovated in 2003.
