About Huntington Beach
Huntington Beach is one of the largest cities
in Orange County, with nearly 200,000 residents. This surf community
is well known for the OP Pro, an annual surfing contest, as well
as its historic pier (the Huntington Beach Pier), surf shops,
and coastal dining. Some of the city's most popular beaches include
the Huntington City Beach, the Bolsa Chica State Beach, Dog Beach,
and the Huntington State Beach. Residents and visitors take advantage
of "Surf City" appeal by enjoying beach volleyball, ocean kayaking,
evening bonfires, boogie boarding, fishing, skate boarding and
the well-known Grunion Run, which occurs yearly between March
and August. Huntington Beach has changed a lot since its days
as a polluted oil town; it now hosts Orange County's only beach
marathon (the Pacific Shoreline Marathon), The Huntington Beach
Playhouse, The International Surf Museum, the Pro Beach Volleyball
Tournament, free summer concerts and the Bolsa Chica Wetlands
which serves as a bird and wildlife refuge. Events for the kids
are favorites as well; the Huck Finn Fishing Derby is held annually.
