We Love Long Beach
January 19, 2022

Long Beach, California: the home of great cannabis connoisseurs, filled with iconic locations to enjoy a true Southern California experience. If you're looking to make the most of your adventures in Long Beach, consider rolling a joint and checking out the best local hangouts. 

Many cannabis devotees agree that top-quality cannabis adds to someone’s overall experience, and since the state of California has formally legalized cannabis, your marijuana buzz doesn’t have to coincide with run-ins with law enforcement.

Because Long Beach is packed with cool locations to chill out and vibe, we’ve made it a point to outline some can’t-miss locations. And whether you’re a Long Beach local or simply visiting, there’s no need to search for a “dispensary near me,” because at Chronic, we’ve got you covered.

Can I get high anywhere in Long Beach?

Tourists tend to misinterpret news articles about state cannabis laws. Some may assume that cities like Long Beach are free-for-all weed havens (they are not).

Since marijuana is legal within the state, it is easy to think that there are no consequences to getting high in California, but much like any other place in the United States, there are specific regulations outlined within the law. Regardless of the fact that there are dispensaries all over the city, it’s wise to follow the rules.

There are actually a few restrictions on cannabis use in California. The following guidelines are good to know before you spark that joint on Pine Avenue.

  • It is illegal to consume cannabis in public. Make sure you light up in your apartment or cannabis-friendly hotel.
  •  It is illegal to bring cannabis products across state lines. Do not buy cannabis in California and bring it to another state.
  • Individuals must be 21 or older to buy, possess, or use cannabis.        
  • Cannabis cannot be given or sold to anyone under the age of 21.    
  • Driving under the influence of cannabis is illegal.    
  • Consuming cannabis in any form on state-owned land and national parks is illegal.
