Calm waters, safe conditions, and endless fun! Discover why Huntington Harbour is the perfect place for families to paddle, cruise, and make memories together.
Looking for family-friendly water activities that are safe, fun, and memorable? Huntington Harbour's protected waters make it an ideal destination for introducing kids to kayaking, paddleboarding, and boating. No big waves, no strong currents—just calm, clear waters where young paddlers can build confidence and create lasting memories.
Unlike ocean beaches with waves and currents, Huntington Harbour offers protected waters that give parents peace of mind while kids have a blast. The calm conditions make it easy for children to learn water skills safely.
One thing we've noticed: kids often pick up paddling faster than adults! Their lower center of gravity helps with balance, and they're not afraid to get a little wet. Most kids are paddling confidently within their first 15-20 minutes.
The calm water means falls are gentle splashes, not scary wipeouts. And on warm days? Kids actually hope to fall in—the harbor water is clean and refreshing!
