If you keep walking from Main Street and cross the Pacific Coast Highway and the beach, you will end up at the Huntington Beach Pier, one of the top Huntington Beach attractions to see on your romanticday trip.

The iconic heart of the city, it is a pier of indulgence - its only purpose is pure fun. It invites visitors to enjoy a stroll along its 1,850 feet that stretch all the way to the Ruby's Surf City Diner.

It is the place where people come to watch surfers and where surfers come to meet their buddies and discuss the latest opportunities.

The pier is also a favorite among fishermen, even young beginners who are learning how to cast a line from their grandpas. The magical sunsets attract hundreds of tourists every evening. The pier is so picturesque that few hardly think of its rough past.

Built in 1904, it was destroyed by powerful storms on three occasions and once by an earthquake. Originally built entirely of lumber, it is now made of steel reinforced concrete protected by epoxy, and it can withstand almost anything nature wants to throw at it. The pier is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Huntington Beach Pier Map
