Hotel at a Glance: Kimpton Shorebreak Resort

At 4-star Kimpton Shorebreak Resort, portraits of surfers decorate the guest rooms and photos of waves dominate the lobby. It’s no surprise that the ocean inspires much of the decor at Shorebreak, called a “surfer’s haven” by Fodor’s. Just steps from the hotel, Huntington Beach beckons surfers to tackle some of the Pacific Ocean’s gnarliest waves. Ask the surf ambassador at the entrance, who’s there to help you get your feet wet and point you in the direction of relaxation and adventure. There’s also an entire storage area just for your surfboard, too.

Huntington Beach, California: Charming Surf Town in Orange County

Huntington Beach has more than earned its title as Surf City, USA. It hosts the annual US Open of Surfing, the Beach Boys name-dropped it in their song ”Surfin’ Safari,” and eager surfers come from miles away to paddle into the Pacific. The average temperature in Huntington Beach is a near-perfect 67 degrees all year, and the sun is almost always shining. In addition to the beach, you can explore the iconic Huntington Beach Pier. Rent a fishing pole to angle for halibut and sea bass (you don’t need a license), or buy a T-shirt at the pier’s souvenir stand. Stroll around downtown Huntington Beach to take in the laid-back surf-town atmosphere and pick up a pair of flip-flops—they’re standard footwear here.
