"One of the last remaining small beach... " a Seal Beach Travel Page by jenn_d

Most of these pictures were taken on an overcast day in February. Even still, the water was packed with surfers waiting for the perfect wave. This picture was updated January 18th 2009.

In the summertime the shoreline is overflowing with bikini clad girls and local families. Ice cream shops and eating establishments are just footsteps away.

My good friend Mel came from the Bay Area this weekend was treated to 80 degree weather, a surf contest, and cinammon french toast at the end of the pier. Our boys even went for a swim in the chilly waters.

Seal Beach is one of my favorite Orange County beach communities because its residents are commited to keeping out the national brand chains and preserving the charm of the the city's main strip...not surprisingly named Main Street. You won't find huge hotels and resorts spiliing out on to the sand and you'll have to drive to Long Beach or Huntington Beach(the two neighboring cities)if you want to find a Starbucks.

If I had a minimum of $800,000 to spend on a home this would be the first place that I would look.
