Introduction:
Just a stone’s throw from Alamitos Bay (about one mile south), Anaheim Bay is home to a naval station, wildlife refuge and leads to Huntington Bay, a recreational area with marinas and water activities.

Anaheim Bay is home to the Seal Beach Naval Weapons Station and all sorts of naval craft including nuclear sub, Aegis-Class destroyers and all variety of military sea vessels.

Navigating the Water:
Use NOAA Chart 18749.

Approach from the south. Flashing green bell buoy “1” and flashing red whistle buoy “2” mark the initial passage to Anaheim Bay, while flashing green “5” and flashing red “6” mark the west and east jetties of the inlet, respectively. A 23-foot fixed vertical clearance bridge limits further passage to Huntington Bay.

As the Naval Weapons Station at Seal Beach is located here, there are usually many special restrictions in place, depending on what craft are in port, and what weapons are being loaded or unloaded. Keep your VHF radio tuned to channel 16 and follow any instructions given by security patrol craft.
