Bolsa Chica Wet Lands

History of Tin Can Beach 

In the 1950’s, the beach below Bolsa Chica became known as Tin Can Beach due to the 300-ton piles of trash that had been improperly discarded of and left there. Campers and squatters lived in the area for months at a time in makeshift shacks and shanties constructed of cardboard, tarpaper, and scrap lumber. When the state purchased the beach in 1961, it was cleaned and established as the Bolsa Chica State Beach, which is now one of the most popular beach attractions in California.


 
 

In the late 1980s, early 90s the Bolsa Chica wet lands became a battle cry for conservationists. The property values were booming and developers desired the land for luxury homes. Environmentalists won this war and today the area stands as nesting ground for migrating birds. 


Property values around the surrounding area of Huntington Harbor and Seal Beach are very high but the views are spectacular.

The refuge not only offers a safe harbor for migrating birds but is also a gorgeous spot to bird watch, hike, run.
It also offers a really nice educational opportunity for kids and adults alike..



And of course..if you know.. you know..




Having grown up in Seal Beach.. **** you just can't not.




And the camping is great 👍
