Main Street is great for shopping. There are some cute stores and a Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory! There've been a few memorable nights...I'd have to rank my 23rd birthday barhopping bash as the best.

Hostel?
Hey,
I've tried google-ing 'Huntington Hostel' and i've found a place called
Colonial Inn Youth Hostel Hotel
However, looking through the various hostel sites, i can't find it.
It's site does not load either.
Is this hostel still open?
If not, can anyone recommend a 'cheap' place to stay in the area for two nights.
I'll be hitting the area in early September.
Thanks in advance.
Yoz

Re: Hostel?
Try www.hostelworld.com. It is a world wide site so you won't have to jump from city to city on seperate searches. Gary
Re: Hostel?
Hello
Colonial Inn Youth Hostel Hotel is closed!
The are virtually no hostel in Huntington Beach (Surf City), Most of the big Hostel Sites eg HostelWorld will return a search for Motel or 2 Star type accommodation estimated at £35-40 per night
You should set your budget per room at £40 per night
The following Motel chain types will meet £40 per night
Comfort Inn • Homestead Studio Suites • Best Western
• Ramada Inn • La Quinta Inn • Holiday Inn
Checkout Priceline.com (Name Your Price)
at around $35 - 45 per night
Local tax at 11%
Best wishes
Re: Hostel?
Hey,
Thanks for clearing this one up!
Looks like i'll be forced into staying at a Motel!
Thanks again.

Re: Hostel?
You might wish to checkout the following site: www.koa.com. The site is for rv parks/campgrounds across the US and Canada. Some of the campgrounds have tent sites, and others have tent cabins. You would just need a sleeping bag/linen, a light source, and maybe a small cooking appliance of some type. A lot of the campgrounds have showers, laundries, and even small grocery stores. At least you could somewhat choose what to eat, and avoid motels for a bit of your trip. If you had the gear, the state parks would be just fine as well. Neither will be in the middle of town, but most of the time thats a lot better. Gary
Re: Hostel?
If you haven't booked your flight in Los Angeles, would you consider flying into San Francisco instead ? They have quite a few hostels in that area. There is the Point Reyes hostel,which sits near the ocean, in the Point Reyes National Seashore. In San Francisco, there is the Fort Mason Hostel, which sits near the bay, with easy access to the Golden Gate, Pier 39, and the Wharf. There are several other hostels located throughout San Francisco. The Pigeon Point and Point Montara Lighthouses have also been converted to small hostels, and are directly on the ocean. For a listing of the hostels in that area try: www.norcalhostels.org. Gary
Re: Hostel?
There is a hostel in HB but I'm not sure of the name when I go down next week I will check if its still there and e-mail the phone # if it is.They are doing a lot of building around Main St so a lot of the old buildings are being re done.San Francisco is cold at the beach and they don't have camping grounds in HB.If your going after Labor Day the motel rates go way down.
Re: Hostel?
Hey,
That'd be awesome.
I'm pretty keen on spending a few nights in either Huntington or Laguna, but no hostels means i'll have less time there because i'm working on a pretty small budget.
Does anyone know of any local haunts which are worth checking out? (Pubs, Bars)
Again, thanks

Travel Tips for Huntington Beach
Got the hang of it now!
As Huntington Beach is famous for surfing, there is a Surfing Museum situated on Olive Street.
It is a haven for surfing enthusiasts, telling the history of surfing, and you can listen to the Beach Boy's surfing songs.
Starbucks
I am kind of caffeine addict and especially when I am in US: The coffee there is good. LOL. From HB I didn't find very many coffee shops so I got my satisfaction daily from Starbucks. Which was totally ok for me. The staff there was fun, very nice types, absolutely fantastic ones. Too bad that I didn't asked that one cute guy out...just kiddin' !
But a tip for you. Starbuck is there and a lot better than some other coffee shops along the Main Street.
Address: 221 Main Street
Surfers Paradise....
I couldn't surf if I tried however it looked fantasic and is part of the World Championships itinerary General surfing gear, ie: wetsuit, board, etc
Try the Java Surf Shack opposite the beach on the Pacific Coast Highway for gear rental...at what didn't seem too expensive prices
(for location see "croissants.." in my other tips)
Pacific Shoreline Marathon
For me running at HB was torture. I am so used to cooler climate that the humidity and hot weather were killing me. My heart rate went up to the sky all the time, even early in the morning. So I cannot imagine myself running this marathon, but as a viewer it might be fun.
Orange County's only Beachfront Marathon, including a half Marathon, 5k and surfkids mile run. A two day expo will include heatlh and fitness vendors, exhibitors, community groups, and event charities. There will be a tailgate party on Sunday which includes a beer garden and live entertainment.
