Long Beach, which hosted events at the 1984 Games and rowing at the 1932 Games, will host canoe sprint, handball, marathon swimming, rowing and triathlon.
"The 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games will reflect all that the Los Angeles area has to offer, and with these venue assignments, we're very proud to bring the Games to many of our vibrant and diverse communities," said LA28 chief athlete officer Janet Evans.
"The City of Los Angeles will host more Olympic sports than anywhere else, and Carson and Long Beach, which hosted competitions in previous Games, will host more competitions than ever before.
"The venues in these cities are world-class, and provide the ideal conditions for athletes and fans, and we look forward to welcoming them in 2028."
LA28's announcement comes after last month it said swimming would be held inside the joint home of the NFL's Rams and Chargers while canoe slalom and softball would be held in Oklahoma City to limit costs.
Organisers will announce additional venue assignments in the months ahead, including for new sports like flag football and cricket that were added since LA28's original 2017 Bid Plan.
