This is a great brewery in Huntington Beach - my friends and I all enjoyed beers and food from the food truck (and parking in the parking lot was super easy). It had an industrial feel and we had booked reservations for the distillery next door which I highly recommend for fun themes and great cocktails and atmosphere. The owner that we met is awesome and really seems passionate about drinks and people having a great time at the brewery and we will definitely be back!

I camped here several times this year. It’s a fun laid-back environment and the state workers do a good job. Hosts are very accommodating And there is a store near the campground that is well stocked. I enjoy my stays here and wish I could have more than the state required 30 days. But I think the states being fair to the community to limit it.

Huntington Beach Pier was first finished in 1904 but was damaged in storm and rebuilt in 1914 and in 1931 500 feet was added to the pier but it separated from the original pier in the earthquake of 1933. The pier was repaired but was damaged again by hurricane in 1938 but was repaired the following year. During WW1 the pier was taken over by the military and a submarine lookout and large machine gun was installed. After the war the pier was returned to the public and held up until the storms of 1983 & 1988 finally damaged pier to the point it needed to close. The current pier was finished July 18th, 1992 with a dedication with 500,000 people. The pier was built using much of the same 1914 design. Huntington Beach draws almost 4 million people annually who come for the surfing, volleyball, air show, food and even Segway Tours from Surf City Segway can be booked.

Discover the best of Southern California culture, the most authentic surfing lifestyle and 16 miles of coastline in Huntington Beach, a welcoming town. A worthwhile trip are the beaches located in this region (Southern California), especially Huntington Beach. After two full days at the Disneyland and California Adventure Park parks in Anaheim, we decided to have a free day at the beaches to rest a little from the hustle and bustle of the amusement parks. We left early and drove to Huntington Beach (38 km from Anaheim), one of the most beautiful beaches in California, named Surf City, where you can visit a super cool surf museum, the International Surfing Museum, the Pier which is very beautiful, you will also find hotels near the sea, shops and restaurants that are great for enjoying the best coastal weather in California. Several rock bands were born in Huntington Beach, such as The Offspring and Avenged Sevenfold. It has a beautiful mural made by artists and the Huntington Beach plaque carved in concrete. The Pier is simple but very cozy, we stop at a cafe to enjoy a delicious cupcake and a coffee drink, feeling the sea breeze on the face and the energy of this beautiful region of California. With fabulous options scattered all over Huntington Beach, the dining scene can only be described as eclectic, with never-changing little taquerias and cafes, as well as new restaurants that use fresh local ingredients in creative ways. There is certainly something to please even the most demanding palates. On the day we visited the site there was a peaceful protest of war veterans on the beach sand, there were people playing volleyball and many surfers enjoying that sunny morning. We walked around the city, very well organized, safe and clean. From here we head further south to Newport Beach.

Great tone to be in huntington is during surf competitions. Great to watch from the pier and great restaurants at the pier. Parking gets rough though as it is a popular spot. Take light jackets as it gets pretty cool at night. Great shopping all over the area.

This place is SO much fun! we loved the laser maze rooms. There are so many options, from bumper cars to a par core course, mini golf and so much more. The mini golf is mini super mini but challenging! The bowling has a bar behind it with great bar food options they have a snack bar in the main area with standard pizza etc but the bar has really nice choices! Do the tow hours one hour is not enough time! We also went on a weekday when they opened at 10am and noticed when we left it was getting busy.
