Visit Balboa Beach On Your Newport Beach Vacation
Just off Pacific Coast Highway, Balboa Beach in Newport is one of my favorite beaches to visit on a Newport Beach vacation. I love the village setting with all the cafes and shops and the endless selection of things to do. You can eat at “21″ and have an Oceanside view.
The pier has amusements and rides, and of course games and prizes. You can relax at the local coffee shop and if you surf, it’s a surfer’s paradise offering equipment and supplies and reports of how the surf is doing. One of my favorite places to eat and just hang out is the Cannery. But the best attraction for me is the Wonderland Bakery! Just so much fun to look at and everything is always good.
I enjoy a long walk on the pier as the sunsets, smelling the fresh sea air. You can rent boats of all kinds, so if you are set on some water fun, they have it there for you. This is a great vacation spot. With waterfront lodging, a quaint shopping village. Plenty of dining choices. You can whale watch during spring and fall.
Newport is located within an hour or so drive to Disneyland, or Hollywood and Beverly Hills. It’s a beautiful place to visit. Family friendly, pet friendly. The sky’s the limit. Accommodation’s include hotels, rental homes, luxury rentals. Beachfront property, in town property. You can rent a row boat to a yacht! There is plenty to see and do in Newport. I suggest a minimum of a one week stay, but can tell you even 2 weeks is not nearly enough time, there is that much to see and do.
Don’t miss out on the Ferry, Corona Del Mar or if you golf, remember to hit the greens!and of course, Fashion Island is a must for you avid shoppers! they have a great koi pond there and great shops!Be sure to take a dinner cruise or enjoy one of the many concerts and entertainment provided!
You are sure to enjoy your stay and will remember it for a long time to come.
