The countdown is on — the 2025 US Open of Surfing is almost here, and Huntington Beach is about to transform into summer’s ultimate playground.
Think sun, surfboards, DJs, and ice-cold Pacificos. Running from July 26 – August 3, Huntington Beach — aka Surf City USA — welcomes locals, visitors, and international surf fans for a week packed with waves, beach culture, and coastal energy.
But surf week isn’t just about the heats. It’s about where you eat, drink, and vibe between the action. And in Orange County, where lifestyle is everything, the local dining and nightlife scene delivers in style. Whether you’re a local, relocating from across the U.S., or visiting from abroad, Huntington Beach’s restaurants, lounges, and rooftop hideaways capture the essence of luxury coastal living.
