My little one had an enjoyable time seeing and hearing all the animals and walking around the gardens! We saw cows, pigs, piglets, oxen, chickens, goats, sheep, bees, rabbits, and peacocks. You can even pet most of them! There were many handwashing stations available. The garden was fun to walk around and see all the labeled flowers, fruits and vegetables growing. The entire area has plenty of shade and seating. Keep in mind that you'll mostly be walking in dirt so dress yourself and children appropriately!

Second of all it has quite a large range of animals, i'm happy they titled it a Farm and not a Zoo because that's exactly what it is. I take my toddlers here very very often and they love seeing the babies, the plants and the food grow. It's such a good educational opportunity and family is always fascinated and intentional to go back. I hope we never lose this diamond!

For years and years, I have been trying to stop by here and take a look. So, we took 30 minutes of our time to hang out here yesterday. Lots of Huntington Beach history and scenery.

I chose the Tower Plaza Parking Structure (near the Westin Hotel), which was just a short walk to the museum, while the other options are a bit farther. Parking is paid, about $6 per hour. Once you arrive, check-in is quick and no reservation is needed. Admission is free, and they provide a sticker that you'll need to wear throughout your visit. The museum is two floors, featuring a variety of sections and artists. The architecture itself is beautiful and perfect for photos, and the artwork is unique and enjoyable to explore. Overall, it's a great experience, especially since it's free. Tip(s): - Park at Tower Plaza Parking Structure (near Westin Hotel) and just walk to the museum - Free entry - Restrooms available - No appointments needed

I visited Noguchi Garden for the first time back in 2019. I was surprised to learn that it's a…read morepublic space because it's nestled between tall office buildings and having driven by for years, I had no clue it was tucked away behind the buildings. It's an outdoor sculpture garden that was commissioned by the Segerstrom family and designed by Isamu Noguchi a Japanese-American artist. It features sculptures made of natural materials, water features and my favorite surprise of all... coastal redwoods! This is one of the very few spots in Southern California where you can be near a coastal redwood tree! My one critique of this space is that it is not easily accessible. You may have to park a couple blocks away and walk over and you might even have to pay for parking, but you can always park at the South Coast Plaza for free and walk over. Shouldn't take more than 10 min.

Are they swapping tales of how they con the humans out of extra snaccos by using their cuteness?" But in all seriousness, you should stop by Civic Center Park if you're ever in the area. There's plenty of free parking (both structure and outdoors). It's a nice and easy path, great for an evening stroll. And if you're lucky enough, you may even catch a glimpse of hares around the Bunnyhenge! Picture Tip: If you like a nice aerial view of Bunnyhenge (or other parts of the park) be sure to utilize the elevated walking path at the intersection. You can walk up (or use the elevator) and it will take you to a lookout platform that will give you an amazing shot.

Once you make it down, it opens up into crystal clear water and a stunning stretch of beach. The tower itself is incredibly unique and photogenic, almost like something tucked into a seaside storybook. Just a heads up, it is not dog friendly. Overall, a memorable spot that feels like a little hidden treasure along the coast.

However recently when I started going, I couldn't stand the smell of the theaters. In the foyer it smells like a hotel, but once you open the door to your theater, a warm muggy burst of dirty socks hits you in the face like a ton of bricks. Really bad - they need to clean the carpets, get better ventilation, SOMETHING. Because it even pushed me to the point of having to eat before going so I don't feel queasy. Also very disappointed they don't give free water anymore - have to buy a Fiji water. Feels like they're nickel and diming people to sit in stinky theaters.
