Huntington Beach Pier
sunset picture above is
one of our favorite
images of this Southern
California destination.
Locals in
Huntington Beach
call the Huntington
Beach Pier their icon to
represent their beach
city, and you can see
why in the photo we
took.
If you wander up and
down the beach (south
side) as the sun sets,
you can play with the
light, keeping it hidden
behind
Ruby's on the
pier, or the pier
pilings as the sun drops
even lower.
The colors vary from day
to day so you cannot be
sure what mother nature
is going to serve you.
Kind of like the chef at
nearby Duke's Huntington
Beach, the meal or
sunset often takes on a
twist, though it's
usually a pleasant
surprise.
As this golden time
shown in our sunset pier
image, a surfer
just happened by with
his red board. And a
little bird sat on the
left, watching for his
next morsel as the next
wave washed something
his way.
Stage right a dad and
son wander, looking down
at the beach. This is
the time of day when you
see some interesting
light and shadow things
on the sand. Little tiny
bubbles from sea crabs,
little shells, and waves
all make the setting
incredibly interesting.
Where to stay to see
awesome sunsets from
your hotel:
There are three hotels
that offer sunset views.
From the south
(direction this photo
was taken from, you can
select to properties
owned by the same
company, but under
different brands. One is
a
Hilton (Waterfront Beach
Resort) and the
other is
Hyatt (Regency
Huntington Beach Resort
& Spa).
They offer the sunset
views of the pier with
the sun setting behind
it. You can see
the sunset, but not
usually behind the pier
at
Best Western Huntington
Beach Inn.
Since it sits on the
north side of the HB
Pier, the sunset there
will appear to drop
behind Catalina Island
or San Pedro.
