Huntington Beach offers a fun environment enjoyed by all ages.  In the video from above, children and an adult are interviewed and asked what they like to do in Huntington Beach, California.

If you are thinking of hitting the beaches this summer, don't overlook those hidden gems that locals know about and enjoy. Huntington Beach, an Orange County and Southern California beach destination, shares its sands with around 11 million folks annually. While the number pales in comparison to a large city population, or to visitors going to nearby Disneyland in Anaheim, the charm of such a place is in its people, its comfortable size and its simple pleasures.  Beaches, bicycling, skateboarding and surfing are a few of the popular activities you might enjoy when visiting.

Several outdoor farmer's markets occur, one each Friday at Pier Plaza overlooking the Huntington Beach Pier, and a second event on Tuesdays seasonally along Main Street.  These markets are but one of hundreds of activities and things to do for all ages in Huntington Beach.  Free summer concerts and not one, but three venues, play & theatrical performances as at three venues, two museums, two small skateparks, many parks, and the shining star, three beaches stretching over 8 miles, all make for a great vacation.

The hotels in the city range from affordable Best Western, Comfort Suites or Extended Stay, to the more upscale Hyatt Regency Resort or Hilton Waterfront Resort. And there are also RV camping lots available for summer or winter enjoyment.

Bonfires at the beach, volleyball, skating, bicycling, surfing, dining, shopping and too many events to list on this page, all make for the perfect getaway for your group or yourself.
