Spot Guide
Huntington Pier is the self-proclaimed "Surf City USA" and host of the US Open of Surfing, one of the most famous competition venues in the sport. The pier creates sandbars on both sides that produce fast, peaky beach break waves — the north side is more forgiving for beginners, while the south side and main pier area attract intermediate-to-advanced surfers seeking barrel opportunities. NE Santa Ana winds create classic offshore conditions that groom the wave faces to perfection.
