Reviewed By Smithysfishing - Buddina, Australia
Over our 2.5 week stay with friends in Huntington beach we did all the beaches from Long Beach to Laguna Beach and took the train from Santa Ana to Oceanside so we pretty much saw all the beaches down to San Diego. It was good to check out all the scenery in OC to compare to the old TV show. We found ourselves having a quick look on Youtube of old episodes and comparing. All nice wide beaches compared to Australian beaches. Lots of intrastructure with volleyball courts, etc, etc along the whole coast compared to home.

With the recent Pandemic of COVID-19, the world has become a scary place. You can escape by visiting the Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve where you can hike, run, view the wildlife, and get your exercise in at the wetlands with the refreshing ocean breeze. Bolsa Chica State Beach is across Pacific Coast Highway, so the ocean view is a plus. The wildlife, migratory birds, and natural environment are refreshing along your peaceful 4 mile walk/run by the ocean. The hours are 6am to 8pm and it's free.

Huntington Dog Beach is a great place to bring your furry friends to run free and play with other dogs or in the sea! Should you have a new puppy I recommend coming midweek if you can when it is not as as busy and getting them socialized and ready for weekends and summertime at the HBDB. The beach ls very long, spacious and everyone seems to be very familiar with rules and dog beach etiquette, they also have extra dog bags should you run out or forget yours. There are public restrooms available and plenty of parking. There is a parking meter machine that takes cash or cards. One thing I really love is the stretch of HB dog beach that is blocked by a cliff....it is nice if you have a dog that loves to run because there is no street access so you can relax and let them play. They also have fresh water near the parking area at doggie level for them to drink! On the weekends they sometimes have special events such as dog surfing contest or particular breed meet ups, you can check out the website and Facebook page to see whats happening. I hope you and your furry friends have as much fun as we do!

If you're vacationing with a dog and want to give your pooch beach access, come to this park. On a leash or off, dogs have free run of the beach. While in town, our group took our son's dog to the beach. The beach is open, flat and a great place to let your canine jump in the waves, chase a ball or frisbee or jump walk on the beach. While your dog is playing, bring some chairs or sand tools and have fun.
