First, Modern Orthodox Jews are frum.
Second, Long Beach has a lovely, out of town vibe, with all the amenities you need, but it's a community that never really took off. You'll be commuting over the Atlantic Beach Bridge to the Five Towns a lot, is my guess. There is a direct Long Island Railroad line into Penn Station.
It has a range of housing, from cheap apartments to mansions, and a range of shuls as well. Definitely worth going for a shabbos to get a feel for things.
In the summer, there are lots of beach goers and a certain amount of partying at night. The Jewish neighborhoods are not near the bars, so you won't be affected much, but there is beach traffic on weekends.
If you want all the conveniences of New York Life with a small town feel (for better and for worse) Long Beach is a great choice.

The Jewish neighborhood is primarily south of Park Ave (towards the ocean, not the bay) and east of Washington. The Young Israel is on Long Beach Blvd at the corner of Penn Street, the Bach is at Beech and Edwards, Chabad is on West Beech between National and Edwards, and the Sephardic Shul is on Lafayette and Penn. You can Google a street map.
The west side of town is where the partying is.
