Signal Hill is a promontory from which signals were raised for ships entering Long Beach Harbor in the earliest days of the city. In the 1920s it was the site of the first producing oil well in the area. Today it provides a nice place to stop and look out over a major part of the city, the Long Beach Airport to the north and the Harbor to the south.
