Bella Terra, Outdoor shopping centre in Huntington Beach, California.
Bella Terra is an outdoor shopping center in Huntington Beach with retail stores, restaurants, and entertainment options connected by landscaped pedestrian walkways and open-air plazas. The property spans multiple blocks with distinct zones designed for browsing and lingering.
The site originated from the Huntington Center, Orange County's first enclosed shopping mall built in 1966, and was extensively redeveloped into its current form by 2006. This transformation marked a shift from a traditional indoor mall to an open-air shopping environment.
The center serves as a gathering place where locals shop, dine, and spend time with family, especially during weekends and holidays. Open spaces here host community events and seasonal markets that reflect the lifestyle of the area.
Multiple entry points make it easy to access the center, with free parking available in both surface lots and a covered parking structure. The layout is designed for walking, so comfortable shoes are recommended for exploring the entire space.
The Residences at Bella Terra are apartments located directly above the retail spaces, creating a true mixed-use neighborhood within the shopping center itself. This blending of residential and commercial life is unusual for shopping areas and shapes daily activity throughout the day.
