Description
Surf City Vibe by Nina Prommer - Here is a typical scene along the beach in Huntington Beach, California, with surfers, beachgoers, palm trees and lifeguard stations.
The title Surf City, USA was the subject of a trademark dispute between the California coastal cities of Huntington Beach and Santa Cruz. Both cities historically claimed to be Surf City, USA and the dispute intensified in 2004 after the Huntington Beach Conference and Visitors Bureau successfully filed the Surf City USA trademark with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.
Then a settlement was reached in January 2008, which allows Huntington Beach to retain the trademark.
Huntington Beach is the home of the U.S. Open of Surfing and the International Surfing Museum. Also the rock and roll duo Jan and Dean had Huntington Beach, not Santa Cruz, in mind when they recorded their 1960s song Surf City.
The blue skies and the fresh air with the sound of some quite large ocean waves makes this a great place to relax, surf, swim and hang out.
