Seal Beach: SR-22 : (9) South of 405
Among the coastal communities of California, Seal Beach stands out for its broad Pacific shoreline and low-rise Old Town. The city occupies the coast just west of the mouth of the San Gabriel River, between Long Beach and Huntington Beach. Its namesake pier extends from the beach at the end of Main Street, the compact commercial spine of Old Town, where independent restaurants and shops serve a largely residential community. Seal Beach also has a strategic side: Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach operates beside the river, while State Route 22 and Interstate 405 meet near the city. This mix of beach, established neighborhoods and major transport infrastructure gives this part of Orange County a distinctly local character.

Seal Beach has served as a seaside resort in coastal Orange County since the early 20th century. The city fronts the Pacific Ocean, while the mouth of the San Gabriel River marks its eastern edge and separates it from the Long Beach area. Seal Beach Pier extends 1,865 feet over the water and is among California’s longest wooden piers; the first pier on this site was built in 1906. Main Street runs directly to the shore, concentrating cafés, local shops and the town’s compact traditional commercial core. The nearby Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach, a major U.S. Navy facility, reflects the strategic role of this stretch of Southern California coast.

California occupies a long Pacific coastal belt in the United States. Its terrain ranges from the Sierra Nevada and the fertile Central Valley to deserts in the southeast and the rugged shores of the Pacific Ocean. The state includes both Mount Whitney, the highest point in the contiguous United States, and extensive protected lands such as Yosemite National Park. California’s cities have exerted worldwide influence through film, technology, agriculture, and music; Hollywood remains an enduring symbol of the American screen industry. Its scale means climates and local character can change dramatically from one county to the next. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of California.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
