One of the favorite places to find a rental property near the water is the Sea Harbour community.   If you have ever been to the Huntington Harbour area of Huntington Beach you will fall in love with the beautiful homes among the blue waters of the bay.  The Sea Harbour community offers a prime location next to the water with select units in this building offer their own private boat docks.  Most of the units located are longer term leases that typically start with a 12 month lease then go month-to-month after that unless another lease extension is signed at that point.   Rental prices for the most part have remained consistent and one of the best deals when you consider living next to the beach and just minutes to the beach.
