Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve: A Wildlife Haven

The Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve in Huntington Beach is a true gem for nature enthusiasts and wildlife lovers. This 1,449-acre coastal estuary offers a serene escape from urban OC, where you can immerse yourself in the beauty and biodiversity of Southern California's wetlands.

There are “hikes” here, but the trails are pretty flat, so they’re more like “nature walks.”
