I had to look up Tin Can Beach, since I had never heard of any part of HB referred as that back when it was my stomping grounds between 84-89.

Tin Can Beach
September 1958: Litter on “Tin Can Beach,” which was cleaned up and became Bolsa Chica State Beach. This photo was published in the Sept. 7, 1958 Los Angeles Times. Credit: Hubert A. McClain / Los Angeles Times

There are more photos in the article
Thanks, yep, the pix are just like my memories of it!

Tin Can Beach was the stretch of beach from Warner to the cliffs. It was pretty much my local beach . . . From the cliffs to the pier, and beyond, was (and still is) "regular" Huntington Beach. I used to take a lot of photos of the area; but I'm afraid my kind of pix are not a good fit for NLA, alas.
