Welcome To Huntington Beach

It is one of the fastest growing cities in Orange County. Huntington Beach is one of the best places to make a firm investment and build a home for you. Huntington Beach turned from a rough and tumble oil town into the third largest city in Orange County. It is now one of California’s funky towns, full of fun, sand and surf. Nicknamed "HB" or "Surf City," Huntington Beach was founded in 1901 as Pacific City on the site of a former Spanish land-grant ranch. In 1904, the townspeople changed the name to honor Pasadena developer Henry

Huntington, who made the small city a stop on his Pacific Electric "Red Car" Railway line. It once gained the unflattering nickname of "Tin Can Beach" early on from the debris found in the sand. However, in 1961, the state cleaned up the tin cans and created Bolsa Chica State Beach. Huntington Beach probably is best known for its nine miles of sandy beaches stretching along the Pacific Coast Highway. An annual surfing contest, the OP Pro, attracts some of the top surfers from around the world. In its the 2000 census, the city population was 189,594.

Huntington is bordered by the Pacific Ocean on the west, by Seal Beach on the north, by Costa Mesa on the south, by Westminster on the northeast, and by Fountain Valley on the east. So if you want to enjoy the lovely beach of Huntington, then you come to the right place.
