Stretching 10 miles along the Pacific shoreline, Huntington Beach offers a coastal paradise for families, couples, dogs, and surfers. With five distinct award-winning public beaches, make sure to hop around to discover each of their distinct charm and amenities. The best beaches in Huntington Beach are Huntington City Beach, Bolsa Chica State Beach, Huntington State Beach, Huntington Dog Beach, and Sunset Beach. Catch a wave in Surf City USA or venture to the surrounding coastal towns of Newport Beach and Seal Beach.
Take your pup to the beach and enjoy the day with your furry best friend. Although most of the OC is dog-friendly, Huntington Beach has the best dog beach of all. Huntington Dog Beach is located between Seapoint Street and 21st Street and is the only off-leash beach in Orange County. Newport Beach and Laguna Beach allow dogs on most of their beaches (with a few exceptions) with a few rules. Dogs are not allowed on the beach between 9 am to 6 pm from June 15th through September 10th, but all other times and months they are allowed if on a leash.
