Huntington Beach CA The Pier Sunset Reflections 4.....by Reid Callaway
California Surfing Mecca Seascape Art

When I photographed this wonderful Huntington Beach Pier image I was on my way to live in Hawaii for a season and drove from here to the Newport Beach Pier on the same afternoon, back and forth the 12 miles so as to catch both locations on the same day. My time was limited and I had driven from Greensboro, GA all across the USA, stopping along the way, capturing images that are now part of HisWorks Photography's Collections here on Fine Art America. Enjoy!

The Huntington Beach Pier is a municipal pier located in Huntington Beach, California, at the west end of Main Street and west of Pacific Coast Highway. At 1,850 feet (560 m) in length, it is one of the longest public piers on the West Coast. (The longest is Oceanside Pier at 1,942 feet (592 m)). The pier is 100 feet (30 m) above sea level.

The Huntington Beach Pier is on the California Register of Historical Resources. It is one of 123 historic places and districts listed on the National Register of Historic Places in Orange County, California (Ref. No. 89001203).

One of the main landmarks of Huntington Beach, also known as "Surf City, USA", the pier is the center of the city's prominent beach culture. A popular meeting place for surfers, the ocean waves here are enhanced by a natural effect caused by the edge-diffraction of open ocean swells around Catalina Island, creating consistent surf year-round.
