Beach Bonfires

There’s no experience quite like enjoying a traditional beach bonfire in SoCal. Head to Huntington Beach or Corona del Mar, where fire pits are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Take along some s’mores, a traditional bonfire delicacy, chocolate bars, and marshmallows to toast over the fire. Oh, and pack your acoustic guitar so you can serenade others during the sunset.

Here’s what these two prime locations offer.

Huntington Beach, famously referred to as “Surf City USA,” provides multiple fire pits on a first-come, first-served basis. Along the vast sandy beaches, these fire pits are an ideal gathering spot for groups wanting to enjoy the activity, along with restrooms, picnic tables, and abundant parking. Since it’s a popular location, it’s advisable to arrive early to reserve a fire pit. Besides bonfires, you can enjoy surfing, playing volleyball, and beach combing, before gathering around the fire at sunset.

Another fantastic location for beach bonfires is Corona del Mar State Beach, known for its beautiful cliffs and panoramic ocean views. With a stunning backdrop for a beach bonfire, the fire pits are along a scenic coastline and are also available on a first-come, first-served basis. The area features charming shops and restaurants, making it easy to pick up last-minute supplies for your bonfire. While it’s a quieter alternative to Huntington Beach, it’s perfect for a more relaxed evening.

Summary

These designated bonfire locations provide an ideal opportunity to relax with loved ones while enjoying the stunning sunset over the Pacific Ocean. So, get your summer on with a quintessential Southern California experience, combining the natural beauty of the coast with the warmth and camaraderie of a fire-lit gathering.
