HUNTINGTON HARBOUR CRUISE OF LIGHTS

About this photo above:

Taken by photographer Debbie Stock just after the sun went down on a Huntington Beach evening, the photo above shows the lights reflecting on the channel waters of Huntington Harbour.

An annual event called "Cruise of Lights" is featured in this channel as one of five manmade channels in Huntington Harbour. Held during a span of approx. 10 days in December, the Cruise of Lights offers tourists and local residents an opportunity to ride in a boat or luxury yacht and see the lit homes lining the waterways of this exclusive residential community.
