Newport/Laguna Beach
Newport Beach, a coastal city in southern California, is known for its large, boat-filled harbor. Balboa Peninsula has 2 piers, Newport Beach Pier and Balboa Pier, plus the Balboa Fun Zone, an old-school amusement park with a Ferris wheel and ocean views. Local beaches include the Wedge, known for its big waves, and Corona del Mar State Beach. The Orange County Museum of Art exhibits modern and contemporary works.
Newport Beach, California is also known for its upscale shopping and fancy restaurants, but its real charm lies along the coast. Where the city meets the Pacific Ocean, the Balboa Peninsula reaches out like a skinny finger from the mainland. It creates a natural harbor dotted with seven small, human-made islands. Coastal Newport Beach is a quiet, relaxed place where you’re more likely to meet the harbor patrol than the highway patrol, and you may hear more birds than automobiles.
