Move · Huntington Beach · Checked November 2, 2026
Gyms, jiu-jitsu and CrossFit in Huntington Beach. Surf City, minus the excuses.
Short answer: if you want a gym that never closes, Huntington Beach has a 24-hour UFC Gym on Beach Blvd and a HOTWORX with 24-hour member access. Two jiu-jitsu schools (Gracie Barra and Electric Jiu Jitsu) list drop-in friendly classes, Kings MMA lists Muay Thai, MMA and jiu-jitsu, CrossFit Surf City is on Surveyor Circle, and Equinox sits at Pacific City. HOTWORX offers one free session to first-time local guests.
The beach is free and the sand is a brutal leg workout, but sometimes you want a roof, a rack and someone to tell you your form is off. Prices are mostly unpublished, so here is what each place says in public.
