Snowflakes light
up the Huntington Beach Pier and Main Street through New
Year's Day. Dozens of artificial snowflakes strewn with twinkling
lights adorn light downtown Huntington Beach. They are a delight to see.
There are on the pier and stretch 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.
