Description

The Surf City USAreg; lifeguards and marine safety officers protect and serve one of the busiest and most famous beaches in the world. World-class surfing events; volleyball tournaments; and other activities transform Huntington Beachs waterfront into a sea of humanity regularly each summer. The lifeguards patrol three and a half miles of beautiful wide; sandy Orange County shores; which can draw more than 10 million annual visitors; necessitating as many as 3;000 rescues. The ultimate lifeguard sentinel and guardian is the iconic structure on the HB Municipal Pier called Tower Zero; known as "The Eye in the Sky;" from which lifeguards can see for miles. These vintage photographs include shots of the pier; beach; junior lifeguard activities; competitions; and neighboring Huntington State Beach. Thousands of people and families owe gratitude to the lifeguards of Huntington Beach for nearly a century of vigilance; dedication; and service.
