What to do in Sunset County? Are there any attractions or entertainments in region?

If you like outdoor activities, the Sunset County can offer such an experience. In particular - SUP surfing. The beach stands out for an excellent base for this kind of sport. And the bonus is the gorgeous scenery from the water. Just try, we recommend it!

For those who wish to engage in something more extreme than a lazy holiday on the beach, it is worth noting that Sunset County is excellent for surfing. This kind of activity is suitable for beginners and for professionals. The waves in this region you can see in the photos above or study the reviews by our users. And by the way, on the beach you can take surfing coaches!

Extremes can be moderate or excessive, so if you are a fan of the first type, than Sunset County welcomes you, offering kite and windsurfing. If on the contrary, it is not your kind of activity, we recommend you to find another beach, since the presence of lots of kite surfers on water can have a negative impact on the comfort of your leisure.

This particular section of Sunset Beach is situated in the Sunset Beach Community of 90742, which was once a part of unincorporated Orange County but has since been incorporated into Huntington Beach for over a decade now. The beach itself is a constant source of beauty, boasting pristine sand and stunning vistas of the ocean, Palos Verdes Peninsula, LA, and Long Beach Harbors, as well as the landmark buildings of Long Beach. While weekdays offer a tranquil escape, weekends can be a bit more crowded, as expected. As this is a residential beach area, it's important to be mindful of the locals' concerns. Thankfully, the community is generous enough to offer free parking along the North and South Pacific Av median, located just a block from the beach. It's worth noting that visitors are welcome to walk their dogs here, which is especially helpful for those who want to catch a glimpse of the sunset but can't bring their furry friends onto the beach. Finally, for those who need to freshen up, public restrooms can be found at the Pacific Av median, as well as at 14th and 19th Streets. All in all, this beach offers a serene and picturesque retreat for anyone seeking a bit of natural beauty and relaxation.
