Huntington Beach and Orange County
Go surfing in the USA with a trip to the capital of laidback living: Huntington Beach. And while you’re there, sink into the relaxed vibe of the one and only Orange County.
Home to the Disneyland Resort, the Knotts Berry Farm theme park, delicious Cal-Mex cuisine, and unparalleled shopping at the prestigious South Coast Plaza, the small but distinct region of Orange County is where you find the vibrant coastal towns of Costa Mesa, Newport Beach, Laguna Beach, and the most famous of them all, Huntington Beach.
Dubbed Surf City, USA, Huntington Beach has 16 miles of pure, uninterrupted coastline that’s world-renowned for one thing: surfing. Claiming the most consistent waves on America’s West Coast, wave riders are out in the water year-round, and many of the world’s top surfers happily call Huntington Beach home. Learn about the history of surfing at the International Surf Museum or take a lesson in the sport yourself – Huntington has waves for all levels.
But surfing isn’t all there is to see or do. Huntington Beach and the OC, as the Orange County is informally called, is haven for all water sports enthusiasts, and features one of the longest piers on the West Coast. Jutting out 564m into the Pacific Ocean, the Huntington Beach Pier is an incredible place to watch the sun set to the sounds of rolling waves and ocean breezes. Huntington also has a lively downtown filled with unique boutiques, surf shops, open-air centres, artisanal dining and public markets – all highlighted by the city’s trademark ocean view.
