#9 Huntington Beach Pier (Kimberly Anne)

I would like to suggest the pier here in Huntington Beach. It is the longest pier in Orange County standing at 1,853 feet in length. Second to the Oceanside Pier in San Diego at 1,942. I personally love this pier as I have a regular ritual of walking it as many mornings as I can and have done so for at least the last 5 years. Everyone loves the HB pier. It is an OC landmark and tourist attraction. One of my favorite things about the pier is when you are walking down it you get the awesome views of the ocean and the surfers with the bright red beacon at the end (Rubys), and you cant forget about Catalina on those clear days.... but then you get to the end walk around and come out to the other view standing over the water looking at the shoreline.... unobstructed by houses and buildings low enough so that on those super clear days in winter when a storm has just past, you can see the snow capped mountains standing tall in the distance. Truly a beautiful sight and place. There are other great things about the pier, have not enough time to write them all..... MAP
