Welcome to Huntington Beach, California-Surf City USA! Located in Southern California between Los Angeles and San Diego, our 10 miles/16 kilometers of pristine coastline and endless summer weather takes a beach getaway to the next level. This year we were named “The Best Beach of California” by USA Today and here's why.

Surf City USA features luxurious oceanfront resorts along Pacific Coast Highway with relaxation amenities and adventure activities for kids. Outside our oceanfront resorts, we have a historical downtown that offers weekly farmers markets to outdoor shopping and dining with a view of the Pacific Ocean. 

Those looking for fun in the sun, Surf City USA offers outdoor activities like surf lessons, stand up paddle boarding, biking, skateboarding, kayaking, duffy boats and much more. 

Surf City USA is home to various signature events happening year-a-round. A few fan favorites are: US Open of Surfing, Corgi Beach Day, 4th of July Parade (the biggest parade west of the Mississippi), Surf City Escape Triathlon, AVP Volleyball Tournament, Coastal Country Jam (on the beach), and the Huntington Beach Air Show. 

Below we created a collage of visitor images. We want them to be a part of telling our story here in Surf City USA. Soon you'll be a part of this collage.
