    Fun way to spend a rainy afternoon!

    They have some great kites here! The place is run by volunteers, and everyone is really, really nice. The $5 adult admission includes getting to build your own mini-kite, which is fun.

    They have some great exhibits, and we really learned a lot about how kites have been used through history - including during WWII and to take the first aerial photographs.

    The gift shop has lots of kites for sale at seemingly-reasonable prices. If you're coming for a weekend, call ahead to see if they're offering any kite demonstrations or classes while you're here.

    Cute museum worth a view and a fun place to stop after a day at the beach. Lots of history and kites decorate the walls. It's great to see so many creative and unique items in their exhibits. The staff are nice and will answer any questions. Their gift shop has lots of books and posters. Long Beach has a kite festival in August so this place is pretty popular. It really is a hall of fame and tracks the records of kite fliers all over the world. Be sure to check the website for more details.
