Huntington Beach, California -
Construction began on the Huntington Harbour
complex in 1963. Two islands, Admiralty and
Gilbert, were included in the first phase of
development. Today, Huntington Harbour contains
five manmade islands offering a wide variety of
home styles in both single family and
condominium units. Every year, during the
Christmas season, the Harbour residents present
a “Cruise of Lights” by dressing up their boats
with lights and decorations for a parade through
the Harbour. Residents and visitors attend the
nightly parades which have become a popular
attraction.
The
Huntington Harbour contains several political
organizations and its very own yacht club with
fishing trips. There's even a local magazine
published just for Huntington Harbour residents.
