Huntington Beach has a long 9.5-mile (15.3 km) stretch of sandy beach, mild climate, excellent surfing, and beach culture. Swells generated predominantly from the North Pacific in winter and from a combination of Southern Hemisphere storms and cyclones in the summer focus on Huntington Beach, creating consistent surf all year long, hence the nickname "Surf City".[1]

History

[edit]
Huntington Beach was originally part of Rancho Las Bolsas. In 1872, Californio ranchero Ramón Yorba (pictured) was patented for half of the rancho, along with Juan José Murillo.
The Huntington Beach Pier

The Tongva village of Lupukngna was located in what became Huntington Beach, with an approximate location near the Newland House Museum.[11] The nearby village of Genga, shared with the Acjachemen, was located across the Santa Ana River in what became Newport Beach and Costa Mesa.[12][13]

The main thoroughfare of Huntington Beach, Beach Boulevard, was originally a cattle route for the main industry of the Rancho. Since its time as a parcel of the enormous Spanish land grant, Huntington Beach has undergone many incarnations. Once it was known as Shell Beach, the town of Smeltzer, and then Gospel Swamp for the revival meetings that were held in the marshland where the community college Golden West College stands. Later it became known as Fairview and then Pacific City, as it developed into a tourist destination. In order to secure access to the Pacific Electric Red Car lines[14] that used to criss-cross Los Angeles and ended in Long Beach, Pacific City ceded enormous power to railroad magnate Henry E. Huntington, and thus became a city whose name has been written into corporate sponsorship, and like much of the history of Southern California, boosterism.

The original Huntington Beach Pier was built in 1904 and was a 1,000-foot-long timber structure.[15][16] Huntington Beach was incorporated on February 17, 1909, during the tenure of its first mayor, Ed Manning. Its first developer was Huntington Beach Company (formerly the West Coast Land and Water Company), a real-estate development firm owned by Henry Huntington. The Huntington Beach Company is still a major land-owner in the city, and owns most of the local mineral rights. The company is wholly owned by the Chevron Corporation.[17]

At one time, an encyclopedia company gave away free parcels of land (with the purchase of a complete set for $126) in the Huntington Beach area.[18] The lucky buyers got more than they had bargained for when oil was discovered in the area, and enormous development of the oil reserves followed. Though many of the old reserves are depleted, and the price of land for housing has pushed many of the rigs off the landscape, oil pumps still dot the city.

Huntington Beach was primarily agricultural in its early years with crops such as lima beans, asparagus, peppers, celery and sugar beets. Holly Sugar was a major employer with a large processing plant in the city that was later converted into an oil refinery.

The city's first high school, Huntington Beach High School, located on Main Street, was built in 1906. The school's team, the Oilers, is named after the city's original natural resource.

Meadowlark Airport, a small general-aviation airport, existed in Huntington Beach from the 1940s until 1989.[19]

Huntington Beach Speedway, a racetrack designed for midget car racing, existed from 1946 until 1958.[20]

In 2023, Huntington Beach became involved in a lawsuit against California governor Gavin Newsom. In March 2023, the state sued Huntington Beach for failing to comply with state housing regulations. The suit brought by the state argued that the city’s ban on the processing of Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) applications violated state housing laws. The city responded with a countersuit that argued it is not subject to state housing laws.[21] The state law required Huntington Beach to zone for 13,368 units to be built inside the city limits from October 2021 to 2029.[22] Huntington Beach's lawsuit describes overturning the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) which determines how housing needs are allocated. Huntington Beach council members have argued that local zoning should be left in control of the state.[23] The state had submitted and amended a complaint as of April 10, 2023, arguing that the city is in violation of the Housing Element Law. The state was seeking both penalties and injunctive relief. In addition to relief, the state was seeking the suspension of the city’s permitting authority and mandating the approval of certain projects.[24] The state filed a motion on June 22, 2023, to dismiss the city’s federal lawsuit. As of November 15, 2023, a federal judge has dismissed Huntington Beach’s lawsuit against the state over housing mandates.[25]

Geography

[edit]
Huntington Beach at sunset

According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 31.9 square miles (82.6 km2). 26.7 sq mi (69 km2) of it is land and 5.1 sq mi (13 km2) of it (16.10%) is water.

The entire city of Huntington Beach lies in area codes 714 and 657, except for small parts of Huntington Harbour (along with Sunset Beach, the community adjacent to Huntington Harbour), which is in the 562 area code.

Climate

[edit]

Huntington Beach has a borderline semi-arid/Mediterranean climate (Köppen climate classification: BSk/Csb), gradually changing for the second to the west and south due to its low precipitation. Although areas such as Huntington Central Park and northern Bolsa Chica usually fall into the first climate type, thus being the boundary of the cool summer Mediterranean climate on the west coast of North America, except for elevated portions in the southern end of the state.[26] The climate is generally sunny, dry and cool, although evenings can be excessively damp. In the morning and evening, strong breezes often reach 15 mph (24 km/h). Ocean water temperatures average 55 to 65 °F (13 to 18 °C). In the summer, temperatures rarely exceed 85 °F (29 °C). In the winter, temperatures rarely fall below 40 °F (4 °C), even on clear nights.[27] There are about 14 inches (360 mm) of rain, almost all in mid-winter. Frost occurs only rarely, on the coldest winter nights. The area is annually affected by a marine layer caused by the cool air of the Pacific Ocean meeting the warm air over the land. This results in overcast and foggy conditions in May and June.

Natural resources

[edit]

Between Downtown Huntington Beach and Huntington Harbour lies a large marshy wetland, much of which is protected within the Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve. A $110 million restoration of the wetlands was completed in 2006.[30] The reserve is popular with bird watchers and photographers.

South of Downtown, the Talbert, Brookhurst and Magnolia Marshes, which lie across the street from Huntington State Beach, had restoration completed in 2010.[31]

The northern and southern beaches (Bolsa Chica State Beach and Huntington State Beach, respectively) are state parks. Only the city maintains the central beach (Huntington City Beach). Camping and RVs are permitted here, and popular campsites for the Fourth of July and the Surfing Championships must be reserved many months in advance. Bolsa Chica State Beach is actually a sand bar fronting the Bolsa Bay and Bolsa Chica State Ecological Reserve.

Huntington Harbour from the air

The Orange County run Sunset Marina Park next to Huntington Harbour is part of Anaheim Bay.[32] It is suitable for light craft, and includes a marina, launching ramp, basic services, a picnic area and a few restaurants. The park is in Seal Beach, but is only reachable from Huntington Harbour. The Sunset/Huntington Harbour area is patrolled by the Orange County Sheriff's Harbor Patrol.[33]

The harbor entrance for Anaheim Bay is sometimes restricted by the United States Navy, which loads ships with munitions at the Seal Beach Naval Weapons Station to the north of the main channel.

Oil

[edit]

Huntington Beach sits above a large natural fault structure containing a critical supply of natural oil.

Huntington Beach has an off-shore oil terminus for the tankers that support the Alaska Pipeline. The terminus pipes run inland to a refinery in Santa Fe Springs. Huntington Beach also has the Gothard–Talbert terminus for the Orange County portion of the pipeline running from the Chevron El Segundo refinery.[39]

Environmental impact of oil drilling

[edit]
San Pedro Bay Outer Continental Shelf Operations Map with oil platforms as of 2012- Edith, Elly, Ellen, Eureka (federal leases) and Ester, Emmy, Eva (state leases)

On October 3, 2021, an oil spill was reported where, "Officials warned of a potential ecological disaster after more than 120,000 gallons of oil leaked from an offshore rig and began washing up on beaches in Southern California as workers tried to contain the spill. The leak was reported Saturday afternoon, with the U.S. Coast Guard stating that the slick was about three miles off Newport Beach. Katrina Foley, an Orange County supervisor, tweeted that the oil spilled from Platform Elly, operated by Beta Offshore, a Long Beach unit of Houston-based Amplify Energy."[40] Reports of tidal wetlands have been damaged, "The spill had reached the Talbert Marsh and some environmentally sensitive wetlands areas by Sunday morning. It will take time to know the extent of the damage but officials said some birds and fish have been found dead. Huntington State Beach is home to a number of species of birds, including gulls, willet, long-billed fletcher, elegant teens and reddish egret, which are rare on the West Coast, according to Ben Smith, a biologist and environmental consultant for the county."[41][42]

Other

[edit]

As of 2007 the city was discussing closing off Main Street to cars from PCH through the retail shopping and restaurant areas, making it a pedestrian-only zone.[43] Other shopping centers include Bella Terra, built on the former Huntington Center site, Pacific City, and Old World Village, a German-themed center.[44]

Several hotels have been constructed on the inland side of PCH within view of the beach, just southeast of the pier.

Huntington Beach contains a small industrial district in its northwest corner, near the borders with Westminster and Seal Beach.

Huntington Beach contains a major installation of Boeing, formerly McDonnell-Douglas. A number of installations on the Boeing campus were originally constructed to service the Apollo Program, most notably the production of the S-IVB upper stage for the Saturn IB and Saturn V rockets.

Surf City USA trademarks

[edit]
Main article: Surf City, USA

While Huntington Beach retains its 15-year trademark of Surf City Huntington Beach, the Huntington Beach Conference and Visitors Bureau filed four applications to register the "Surf City USA" trademark in November 2004. The idea was to market the city by creating an authentic brand based on Southern California's beach culture and active outdoor lifestyle while at the same time creating a family of product licensees who operate like a franchise family producing a revenue stream that could also be dedicated to promoting the brand and city. A ruling by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office released on May 12, 2006, awarded three trademark registrations to the Bureau; nine additional trademark registrations have been granted since this time and ten other Surf City USA trademarks are now under consideration.[45] One of the first products the Bureau developed to promote its brand was the Surf City USA Beach Cruiser by Felt Bicycles in 2006. The product has sold out every year in markets worldwide and created demand for a second rental bicycle model that will be marketed to resort locations across the globe starting in 2009.[46] The Bureau now has dozens of other licensed products on the market from Surf City USA soft drinks to clothing to glassware. As of April 2008, the Bureau had more than 20 licensing partners with over 50 different products being prepared to enter the market over the next 18 months.[47] Four of the Bureau's registrations of the trademark are now on the principal register and the remaining ten trademark applications are expected to follow. The Bureau is actively considering registration of the Surf City USA trademark in several different countries and anticipates a growing market for its branded products overseas in coming years.

An ongoing dispute between Huntington Beach and Santa Cruz, California over the trademark garnered national publicity in 2007 when a law firm representing Huntington Beach sent a cease-and-desist letter to a Santa Cruz T-shirt vendor.[48] A settlement was reached in January 2008, which allows the Huntington Beach Conference and Visitors Bureau to retain the trademark.[49]

Tourism

[edit]
Downtown Huntington Beach

The downtown district includes an active art center, a colorful shopping district, and the International Surfing Museum.

The Huntington Beach Pier stretches from Main Street into the Pacific Ocean. The popular End Cafe located at the end of the pier, was destroyed during a storm in 1983, and was rebuilt and reopened on September 20, 1985.[50] The End Cafe closed in 1988 when another storm destroyed the end of the pier.[51] A Ruby's Diner was at the location from 1996 until 2021.[52] The location was briefly occupied by Bud & Gene's, a casual pop-up seafood restaurant that opened in July 2022.[53] This was short lived, and Bud & Gene's was replaced in August 2023 by the Broad Street Oyster Company.[54]

Huntington Beach is home to the Newland House Museum, Huntington Beach's oldest home built in 1898.[55]

The downtown district was also the home of the Golden Bear from 1929 to 1986. Originally a fine dining restaurant opened by Harry Bakre in 1929, the Golden Bear became a nightclub in 1963 and hosted famous-name entertainment until it was demolished in 1986. The list of artists who performed there includes BB King, Janis Joplin, Jerry Garcia, Merl Saunders, Steve Martin, Charles Bukowski, The Ramones and Stevie Ray Vaughan.

Special events

[edit]

Many of the events at Huntington Beach take place on the beach during the summer. The U.S. Open of Surfing is featured on the south side of the pier.

Huntington Beach is the site of the world surfing championships, held annually in the summer. The city is often referred to as "Surf City" because of this high-profile event, its history and culture of surfing. It is often called the "Surfing Capital of the World", not for the height of the waves, but rather for the consistent quality of surf.

Surf and beaches

[edit]

George Freeth was the first person to surf in Huntington Beach with a demonstration on June 20, 1914. Freeth had been demonstrating surfing in Southern California since 1907 when he was hired first by Abbot Kinney in Venice, then Henry E. Huntington in Redondo Beach.[66] Duke Kahanamoku started surfing in Huntington Beach in 1925 and helped popularize the sport. The first surfboard shop, which was located underneath the Huntington Beach Pier, opened in 1956 by Gordie Duane.[67]

Huntington Beach has some of the best surf breaks in the State of California and that of the United States.[citation needed] Huntington Beach has four different facing beaches: Northwest, West, Southwest, and South. Northwest consists of Bolsa Chica State Beach with a length of 3.3 miles (5.3 km), the West consist of "The Cliffs" or "Dog Beach", Southwest is considered everything north of the pier which is operated by the City of Huntington Beach. South consists in everything south of the pier which primarily focuses on Huntington State Beach (2.2 Miles), which almost faces true South.

Bolsa Chica State Beach is operated by the California Department of Parks and Recreation and the Bolsa Chica State Beach Lifeguards. The beach is very narrow and the sand is very coarse. Bolsa Chica tends to have better surf with NW/W swells during the winter season. During the summer months the beach picks up south/southwest swells at a very steep angle. Due to the bottom of the beach, surf at Bolsa Chica tends to be slowed down and refined to soft shoulders. Longboards are the best option for surfing in the Bolsa Chica area.

"The Cliffs" or "Dog Beach" is also another popular surf spot. This segment of Huntington Beach is so named because dogs are allowed around the cliff area. Beach is very restricted and often is submerged with high tides. Surf at this location tends to be even bigger than Bolsa Chica during the winter and often better. During the summer most of the South/Southwest swells slide right by and often break poorly. The best option is to take out a longboard, but shortboards will do at times. Dolphins have also been sighted in this area.[68]

К северу и югу от пирса Хантингтон-Бич находятся несколько четко очерченных песчаных отмелей, которые в течение года меняются в зависимости от волн. Южная сторона пирса часто становится популярным местом летом для хорошего серфинга, но северная сторона может быть не менее хороша зимой. Вокруг пирса все зависит от волн и отмелей. Шортборд — лучший вариант для серфинга вокруг пирса.

Южный Хантингтон-Бич, также известный как Хантингтон-Стейт-Бич , — это место, где все южные волны воздействуют на береговую линию. Хантингтон-Стейт-Бич находится в ведении Департамента парков и отдыха штата Калифорния и Спасателей Хантингтон-Стейт-Бич. [69] Этот пляж очень широкий, с большим количеством песка . Песчаные отмели резко смещаются в течение весеннего, летнего и осеннего сезонов, создавая тем самым отличные условия для прибоя с сочетанием зыби на юге, западе и северо-западе. Из-за причалов реки Санта-Ана, расположенных в самом южном конце пляжа, большие песчаные отмели простираются поперек и вверх по побережью, заставляя волны разбиваться очень быстро и становиться полыми. Лучшие сезоны для серфинга на этом пляже — лето и осень. Лучший вариант для серфинга в этой местности – шортборд.

Хантингтон-Бич также является популярным местом для кайтсерфинга , и этим видом спорта можно заняться на пляже к северо-западу от пирса.

Каякинг и катание на байдарках

[ редактировать ]

Каякинг и серфинг на доске с веслом — популярное занятие в Хантингтон-Харборе . Вы можете войти в гавань из нескольких точек вдоль PCH к северу от Уорнер-авеню или из одного из пяти общественных «Материнских пляжей», через которые можно попасть в гавань. Есть несколько мест, где можно арендовать каяки и доски для серфинга, а также лодки Даффи . [71] [72]

[ редактировать ]

Центральный парк

[ редактировать ]

В Хантингтон-Бич есть большой центральный парк, известный как Центральный парк Хантингтона. Центральный парк расположен между улицами Готард и Эдвардс на востоке и западе, а также авеню Слейтер и Эллис на севере и юге. Центральный парк Хантингтона, открытый 15 июня 1974 года, является крупнейшим городским парком в округе Ориндж, его площадь составляет почти 350 акров (140 га). [76] Парк засажен ксерическими (малопотребляющими воду) растениями и населен местной дикой природой. Густые леса, окружающие парк, дополняются австралийскими деревьями, в частности эвкалиптом голубого камеди , растением с высоким потреблением воды. [77]

Центральный парк Хантингтона

Публичная библиотека Хантингтон-Бич расположена в Центральном парке в примечательном здании, спроектированном Ричардом Нейтрой и Дион Нейтрой . В нем хранится почти полмиллиона томов, а также театр, сувенирный магазин и фонтаны. Библиотека была основана как библиотека Карнеги в 1914 году и постоянно поддерживается городскими и местными активистами, открывая новые здания и действующие филиалы в Бэннинге, Оук-Вью, Мейн-стрит и Грэме. Библиотека располагает значительными краеведческими материалами и специальной генеалогической справочной коллекцией. Он независим от библиотечных систем штата и округа.

В парке также находится Конный центр Центрального парка Хантингтона, территория площадью 25 акров (10 га), на которой содержится более 400 лошадей, а также действует школа верховой езды всех уровней. Также доступен прокат лошадей для публики с прогулками по парку с гидом. [78]

Для детей также есть игровая площадка или грязевая яма. Он открылся в 1974 году на дне заброшенного песчаного карьера и через несколько лет переехал на свое место рядом с библиотекой. На момент постройки это была одна из немногих настоящих игровых площадок для приключений в Калифорнии. Хотя игровая площадка была отремонтирована в 2020–2022 годах, она закрылась из-за засухи. [79]

Второй старейший в мире [80] В парке есть поле для диск-гольфа, а также две небольшие обеденные зоны, спортивный комплекс для взрослых и природный центр Шипли.

Государственный экологический заповедник Болса Чика — это естественное водно-болотное угодье площадью более 1200 акров (4,9 км2). 2 ) и содержит множество пешеходных троп и живописных маршрутов. Территория является одним из лучших мест для наблюдения за птицами в США, привлекающим стаи птиц, мигрирующих по Тихоокеанскому пролетному пути между Северной и Южной Америкой. [81] Сами водно-болотные угодья снова соединили с океаном, стремясь сохранить прежние, неизмененные условия.

Хантингтон-Дог-Бич

[ редактировать ]

Хантингтон-Дог-Бич расположен на участке длиной 1,5 мили (2,4 км) между 21-й улицей и улицей Сипойнт. Это единственная зона, где разрешено пребывание с собаками на пляже в Хантингтон-Бич. Регистр округа Ориндж неизменно называет Хантингтон-Дог-Бич лучшим парком для собак в округе Ориндж. [82] Некоторые популярные мероприятия, которые проходят на Dog Beach: Surf City Surf Dog. [83] и So Cal Corgi Nation Beach Days. [84] Пляж Собаки бесплатен для публики. [85]

Общество охраны Хантингтон-Дог-Бич заботится о чистоте и безопасности пляжа. Эта некоммерческая организация, подпадающая под действие статьи 501(c)(3), была основана в 1997 году, и в ее совет входят пять волонтеров. Миссия Общества охраны Хантингтон-Дог-Бич заключается в следующем: «защищать и сохранять доступ к пляжу для собак и их людей, а также способствовать ответственному владению собаками, чтобы наши четвероногие компаньоны приветствовали членов общества». [86]

Общество не получает государственного финансирования, поскольку полностью полагается на частные пожертвования любителей собак, которые ценят это общественное благо , и предоставляет множество ценных услуг, которые минимизируют воздействие негативных внешних эффектов, вызванных собачьими отходами и недружелюбными собаками. Мешки для мусора для собак предоставляются бесплатно (летом в день используется более 3000), а владельцам собак рекомендуется немедленно выбрасывать собачьи отходы в один из многочисленных мусорных баков. Кроме того, каждое воскресенье общество организует уборку пляжа. [87] В целях безопасности посетителей вход с агрессивными собаками запрещен, и собак необходимо всегда держать под контролем.

Общество также создает положительные внешние эффекты , предоставляя общественности ценную информацию на своем веб-сайте, включая правила обеспечения безопасности собак, советы по тому, как впервые вывести собак на пляж, предупреждения об опасности, когда собаки пьют океанскую воду, а также информацию о близлежащих местах. Парковка для автофургонов и отели, где разрешено размещение с собаками. [88] Потенциальные посетители должны знать о политике в отношении поводков: «Согласно существующему городскому постановлению, собаки должны оставаться на поводке. Однако в течение последних нескольких лет выявлялись или удалялись только потенциально опасные собаки, отпущенные на поводок». [85] Важным исключением является то, что при входе и выходе из парка всегда требуются поводки, чтобы обеспечить безопасность возле PCH.

Safety

Huntington Beach Police Department MD520N helicopter

Fire protection in Huntington Beach is provided by the Huntington Beach Fire Department. Law enforcement is provided by the Huntington Beach Police Department. Huntington Beach Marine Safety Officers and its seasonal lifeguards are recognized as some of the best in the world with a top-notch safety record.[citation needed][139] It has an active Community Emergency Response Team training program, that trains citizens as Disaster Service Workers certified by Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) as a part of a free program run by the fire department's Office of Emergency Services.

Emergency services are also provided at State Beach locations. Peace Officers and lifeguards can be found at Bolsa Chica and Huntington State Beach. Such services consist of aquatic rescues, boat rescues, first aid and law enforcement. All services are provided by the State of California, Dept. Parks & Recreation.[clarification needed]

In 1926, the Santa Ana River dam failed, and flash-flooded its entire delta. The southern oceanic terminus of this delta is now a settled area of Huntington Beach. The distant dam is still functional, but silting up, which is expected to reduce its storage volume, and therefore its effectiveness at flood-prevention. The flood and dam-endangered areas are protected by a levee, but lenders require expensive flood insurance in the delta. There have been serious discussions to eliminate the need for flood insurance and this requirement has already been waived in some areas and may one day no longer be considered a credible threat.

Since it is a seaside city, Huntington Beach has had tsunami warnings, storm surge (its pier has been rebuilt three times), sewage spills, tornadoes and waterspouts. The cold offshore current prevents hurricanes. The Pier that was rebuilt in the 1990s was engineered to withstand severe storms or earthquakes.

Large fractions of the settled delta are in soil liquefaction zones above known active faults. Most of the local faults are named after city streets.

Many residents (and even city hall) live within sight and sound of active oil extraction and drilling operations. These occasionally spew oil, causing expensive clean-ups. Large parts of the developed land have been contaminated by heavy metals from the water separated from oil.[citation needed]

The local oil has such extreme mercury contamination that metallic mercury is regularly drained from oil pipelines and equipment. Oil operations increase when the price of oil rises. Some oil fields have been approved for development. The worst-polluted areas have been reclaimed as parks. At least one Superfund site, too contaminated to be a park, is at the junction of Magnolia and Hamilton streets, near Edison High School.[140] On October 2, 2021, an oil spill occurred after a pipe burst, sending oil into the ocean and on the beach. The nearby Talbert Wetlands were affected, and the Pacific Airshow had to cancel the planned show for that day to prevent further damage.
