I've been to Huntington Beach several times before. The sunsets there are beautiful!! My family and I also visit Redondo Beach every once in a while as well. There's an oyster shop at the Redondo pier where you can buy a live oyster and open it to get the pearl inside. I've never opened one, but it looked pretty cool!

I grew up in So Cal and surfed most of my early years. My grandmother owned a small coffee shop across from the pier in Huntington Beach. I saw sharks all the time but they never bothered us. Of course, I never encountered a Great White!! HA!!!!!!!!!!!! Saw dolphins all the time, too. They were cool.

Actually my dear, that is a dolphin not a shark. You can tell by the shape of the dorsal fin and, if you look closely, the tail fin is horizontal not verticle, indicating a mammal.
