Huntington Beach

Huntington Beach, also known Surf City is the spiritual home of surfing.  The city boasts a surfing museum and has a Hollywood-style stars on the sidewalk, commemorating the stars of surfing over the years.

The place is more lively than Newport Beach and perhaps a little more up-market.

Wide clean beaches, dotted with people and life guard towers is perhaps everyone's idea of a Californian beach.  If so then Huntington certainly lives up to the image.

Plenty of pay-and-display parking can be found along the coast line through Huntington Beach on CA-1, the Pacific Coast Highway (PCH).

You may be lucky to catch a craft fair next to the pier . . .
