In the heart of Central Park is Shipley Nature Center - an 18-acre fenced natural area within Huntington Beach. The Nature Center includes 4,000 feet of trails that meander through several habitats, including oak woodlands, Torrey pines, meadows, and Blackbird Pond, a natural freshwater wetland with mature willows and sycamores. Shipley also has a tamed area including a 1,500 sq. ft. Interpretive Building with exhibits on local wildlife and ecology. Stepping into Shipley takes you off of the beach and into the woods.

4,000 ft of trails, small wooden seated demonstration ampitheater, potting shed and nursery.
