If your perfect
California weekend getaway includes
watersports, soaking up rays, building sandcastles, oceanfront
dining, pier-side concerts, great shopping and diverse nightlife,
plan it in HB! With its wide beaches, near-perfect climate and
array of accommodation options, practically no other
Southern
California getaway weekend can compare in variety with a
California
weekend getaway in this idyllic enclave.
Are you bringing the kids along on your
weekend getaway in California?
In addition to being consistently ranked among the Top Safest
Cities by City Crime Rankings, Surf City was named Number One
Family Surf Beach in the U.S. by Dr. Stephen “Dr. Beach” Leatherman
and called One of the Top Five Destinations for Teenagers and
Their Parents by the New York Post. You’ll have peace of mind
on your
California weekend getaway here, knowing that crews of
highly trained lifeguards vigilantly patrol local beaches. During
the summer, surfing is restricted on the South side of the Pier,
to make it safer for swimmers and bodyboarders enjoying the water
on their weekend getaway in California.
For those arriving by plane for a
Southern California getaway
weekend, HB is an easy commute from three airports. John Wayne/Orange
County (SNA) is about 15 minutes away, and Surf City can generally
be reached in 30 to 45 minutes from Long Beach (LGB) and Los Angeles
International (LAX). On your California weekend getaway here,
you’ll appreciate easy-to-navigate streets and proximity to the
major attractions a weekend getaway in California often includes,
like Disneyland, Knott’s Berry Farm and Universal Studios Hollywood.
No California weekend getaway in HB would be complete without
some time spent on the city’s colorful pier and downtown Main
Street, where bikini-clad beauties share the stage with world-class
surfers, toned volleyball players and an occasional celebrity.
When hunger strikes on this Southern California getaway weekend,
your options range from grabbing a bite at such casual bistros
as Sugar Shack Café, where breakfasts attract long lines of regulars
on weekends, to a laid-back meal at Ruby’s Diner at the end of
the pier or more upscale dining experience at Duke’s
Huntington
Beach or Chimayo at the Beach.
