  • Huntington Beach is a fun coastal town in Southern California that is known for its laid back vibe and surf culture. I met up with my friend Chris from Yellow Productions to spend the day exploring the town and seeing some of his favorite spots. Check it out and let me know what your favorite place is in Huntington Beach in the comments.

      You 2 are such friendly & relaxed guys! Nice to see you together in this video! You provide such good and useful info! You give so much special tips about food like that Malasada burger that I never knew, even as a flight attendant for 30 years from The Netherlands and having been many times to California, this was new to me! To see California through your eyes is so much more fun AND these useful tips save you disappointments and time! Thank you for all these tips! 🌷

    I am an admitted Doughnut Snob and lived OC for over 50 years. In that time I've experienced the waning of truly good doughnuts. Today there's only one good shop and that's K D's Donuts in the Raph shopping center on Portola Parkway between Alton and Bake.
    I had to move out of state several years ago and whenever I have friends or family from the area coming to visit I ask them to go to KD's and bring me a box of my favorites.

    Hey Josh. This just popped up on my you tube feed. I am so doing this close to exactly how you did it. Maybe on St. Patricks day!! One of my best friends moved to Orange County and we used to go to Huntington when we were in high school. Which was a while ago. I think I'll clone your day here and do almost all the same things. My wife and kid like boba so the tea place looked fun. Also my wife and I are doing as much hiking as we can these days so I think we will check out the bolsa chica reserve which we have never done. Have a great weekend and thanks again for the video!

    Thank you for this beautiful video full of useful and good information! It can save you a lot of time and disappointment to have the right and accurate info! It is so nice to see California through your eyes Josh as a Dutch flight attendant for 30 years I have been to many diners etc. but to know for instance good donuts and fresh fish places it is better to know this from you! And the collaboration with Chris I loved! Nice to see that there is no competition, but ollaboration and I love it to see 2 guys having fun together filming this video! Thank you Josh for all your information and I am a new Dutch fan! By the way you have a beautiful voice especially when you do the voice over!

Nice to see you in our stomping ground of Huntington Beach where we lived. That place is so busy during the week just like it was busy when you went in there it's the most popular one in that area. We enjoy you and your father on the road keep them coming.

    Bolsa Chica, the best kept secret along HB's beach, free parking and no noise. Only the few wetlands in SoCal unless you go to Morro Bay... I go to BC whenever I'm in town and also to that Pete's Coffee at the Bella Terra. BTW: I avoid the modern HB pier area along PCH after they demolished the old buildings in late 80s....
