Photo Opportunities. Aspiring photographers and videographers will find there is no shortage of mesmerizing photo opportunities in Long Beach. For starters, you've got the ocean, and miles of it. But dig deeper and you'll find some not so obvious scenery worthy of a Kodak moment. Arched bridges overlooking the narrow waterways of Naples Island. The Japanese garden at Long Beach State brimming with camellias, bamboo and a pond full of Koi fish. Then, of course, there is the wildlife sanctuary at El Dorado Park where furry creatures roam freely. Yes, this city is always camera-ready and prepared for its close-up.
