As for Huntington Beach, this gorgeous oasis is home to a plethora of stingrays, with 176 people being stung in one day in 2019!

Here's what LoveExploring had to say about the most dangerous destinations in California:

Death Valley National Park:

"Death Valley National Park attracts vast visitor numbers with its ethereal landscape of undulating sand dunes, rock-salt spires and salt flats. It's also among America's best spots for stargazing and viewing unforgettable sunrises and sunsets. However, this gorgeous place is filled with hazards, from extreme heat and flash floods to rattlesnakes, scorpions and black widow spiders. There’s even a chance of stumbling into illegal marijuana cultivation sites."

Huntington Beach:

"Huntington Beach in Orange County is another popular spot for beach-goers and surfers. So much so it's dubbed Surf City USA, offering miles of sandy shoreline as well as one of the Pacific coast's longest piers at 1,850 feet (564m) long. It also hosts the world's largest surf competition, Vans US Open of Surfing, every summer."
