HUNTINGTON BEACH, CALIF.-- Davenport Beach is located on Davenport Drive just before you drive over the bridge entering Davenport Island. Also referred to as Mother's Beach, it is a small beach ideal for launch your kayaks and is popular as a local beach for sunbathing, reading books and soaking up some sunshine. There are no restrooms at the beach and in addition to a posted sign with rules & regulations, you'll find one or two trash cans.

During the winter months the beach is mostly empty except at Christmas when visitors and locals stop to look a the beautiful houses decorated with lights that reflect on the waters of the bay. You also may see a portion of the Christmas boat park from the beach location.

The beach is operated and maintained by the city of Huntington Beach. There's no lifeguard staff and limited parking. However, you can park further away in local neighborhoods and walk to the little beach if you like.
