Avenue, the sky turns brilliant shades of red, orange and blue as the sun sets over another perfect Orange County day. From Bolsa Chica State Beach to Sunset, Seal and Long Beach, windsurfers find these launch points appealing. Most evenings you'll see the windsurfers coming ashore as darkness sets in.  Sunsets here provide several incredible vistas.  The view south to Huntington Beach Pier is usually subdued with best views offered looking west to Catalina Island and north to Long Beach city lights, the hills of San Pedro and peaks of Rancho Palos Verdes.

Hotels in this region include Ramada Limited with its oceanside rooms and EconoLodge. Both are located in Sunset Beach on the or near the sand.  Sunset Beach is a charming community with local pubs and bars that you can walk to from the hotels.
