This bird's eye view of Huntington State
Beach in Huntington Beach, Calif. shows Pacific Coast Highway and two
entrances to the state park.
In this close view of Huntington
State Beach (SB), you may be able to notice two roads leading into the
beach. One entrance shown on the left is Brookhurst Street crossing
Pacific Coast Highway (PCH). The other road is Magnolia St. which
crosses over to the beach. Magnolia Street experiences a pervasive
problem with water quality and should be monitored before you go
swimming there. (healthebay.org). Check the beach report card for this
beach designated by city and street, so you'll be assured that the water
is OK for swimming.
The photo above shows the flat,
sandy beach fronting the Pacific Ocean. To the far right is Santa
Ana River crossing into the ocean and beyond that begins the beach
residences and beaches of Newport Beach.
For large picnics and gatherings,
your best bet for finding parking is Huntington State Beach pictured.
