About

Huntington City Beach is a public ocean beach in California, about 3.4 miles from the town of Huntington Beach. It's a beach to settle into rather than a route to climb: swimming is allowed, lifeguards are on duty, and the beach has restrooms and accessible access. Late summer into early fall is the warmest stretch. Typical averages from the nearby Newport Beach Harbor station put August highs around 73°F with lows near 66°F, and July through September see almost no wet days. A fee is charged to use the beach, so plan for that before you arrive. Swimmers will find lifeguards watching the water, and the restrooms and accessible access make it a practical choice for families and visitors with mobility needs. Short walks nearby include Trail C, about 2.4 miles away, and Trail A, about 2.7 miles away. Farther down the coast, about 7.6 miles off, the Corona Del Mar climbing area and the Parking Lot Boulders offer rock to scramble on.
