Huntington Pier Canvas Pictures
The Huntington Beach Pier is the highlight to any visit to Huntington Beach, California. It is the anchor to the downtown shopping district along Main Street, and to the City Beaches, the focal point of this tourist destination. First built in 1904, Huntington Beach Pier is said to be 1853 feet long, and was rebuilt in its current rendition with re-enforced concrete pilings. Read the background of the rebuild campaign effort that began in 1991 to rebuild the Huntington Beach Pier as the tourism focal point for the city. Huntington Beach Pier is the 5th longest municipal pier in California. Water basins for fish cleaning are available and the state-of-the-art Tower Zero lifeguard tower facility on the pier features a surf and water conditions chalkboard where current temperatures and wave height are posted daily. The pier has cement benches to sit and watch the waves, is wheelchair accessible and has pay scopes for viewing the surrounding region. The pier is most popular for watching surfing and taking souvenir photos of friends, family and the ocean. The pier celebrated 100 years in 2004. At the beach you can surf, watch birds at the Bolsa Chica Wetlands nature trails, jog, bicycle or skate on the 8.5 mile path that parallels the beach, yet staying off the busy Pacific Coast Highway.
