Getting There -- Driving from Los Angeles, take either I-5 or I-405 to I-710 south, which leads to both downtown Long Beach and the Queen Mary Seaport.
Orientation -- Downtown Long Beach is at the eastern end of the vast Port of Los Angeles; Pine Avenue is the central restaurant and shopping street, which extends south to Shoreline Park and the Aquarium. The Queen Mary is docked just across the waterway, gazing south toward tiny Long Beach marina and Naples Island.
