  • World famous and known as Surf City U.S.A., Huntington Beach has gained a big name for big waves but offers much more. Desmond Shaw gives us a rundown of the many things you can do off the Orange County coast.

    I stopped at Huntington Beach for about 5 hours to to avoid rush hour when driving from Washington to Arizona, driving the coast from the top of the PCH was one of the greatest times of my life, turned a 3day trip in to 3 weeks because you have to stop every 5 minutes it's so fucking beautiful

      Right on! It really is...if you ever drive that again make sure you drive through Davenport and Santa Cruz there's some cliffs there that you can stand on the Western edge of America... It's stunning.. about 200 feet up and the wind blows in from the ocean...I grew up about 12 miles inland from Huntington Beach...I-5 was at the end of my street...glad you enjoyed it...it is really is...fucking beautiful..
      Gotta bring a mask and snorkel for Diamond street in Laguna Beach... OMG...take the steps down to the beach... Crystal Cove...there's a reef on both sides of the cove 10-15 feet deep warm water all summer... peace!

      So , I have been to east coast beaches to know , this was a great trip , even though our hotel was some distance. Folly beach, & some other east coast need expensive "re-neurishment" treatment , due to annual erosion , be it storms or natural strong rip currents. Isle of Palms, north of Charleston SC , will always be a fav!

      Yeah, bu that walk is worth it as it is a completely master-planned beach with beautiful vegetation, view points, & scenery throughout.

      Neither of the beaches you mention have a pier. As a local, born and raised in HB, it wasn’t always ugly in DTHB & it has more “life” than either one you mentioned too (places to go nearby aka across the street from the beach), also SURFING is more popular in our beach than either Laguna or Newport.
