Surfside balances the intimacy of a small seaside enclave with instant access to big-coast experiences. Tucked between Seal Beach and Huntington Beach in Orange County, this guard-gated community of Surfside Colony offers a rare mix of oceanfront homes, quiet lanes, and a front-row seat to the Pacific. Residents wake to the sound of waves, launch morning beach walks steps from their doors, and end the day with sunset views framed by the Anaheim Bay jetty. Community life feels friendly and low-key, with neighborhood pride anchored by the long-standing Surfside Colony.
Outdoor lovers find plenty to explore nearby. Miles of sand and bike paths stretch along Bolsa Chica State Beach, while the restored wetlands at the Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve invite birders and photographers with seasonal migrations and peaceful trails. Just across the bay, the protected Seal Beach National Wildlife Refuge showcases coastal habitat rare along Southern California’s shoreline.
Families appreciate that Surfside is served by the highly regarded Los Alamitos Unified School District, with well-rated programs and strong community engagement. Daily needs are close at hand, from coffee and surf shops to dining on Main Street in nearby beach towns, and Pacific Coast Highway keeps regional commutes straightforward.
If you’re drawn to the idea of living where the ocean defines the rhythm of your day, Surfside offers a uniquely private, coastal lifestyle. Whether you’re buying your first beach home or thinking about selling, Agent Pronto can connect you with a trusted local real estate professional to guide the process.
