Snowflakes light up the Huntington
Beach Pier and Main Street through New Year's Day. Approximately 84
artificial snowflakes strewn with twinkling lights adorn light downtown
Huntington Beach. They are a delight to see. There are 48 on the pier and 36
stretching along Main Street from Pacific Coast Highway to Orange Avenue.
Traditionally placed along Main Street and the Huntington Beach Pier, they
are truly beautiful displays of holiday spirit in Huntington Beach. Watch
the twinkling lights reflect on the Pacific Ocean waters below.
