Like Laguna Beach, this is a town with a peninsula that has all the restaurants, activities and views you could want. Beautiful homes line the twisty canals and the Newport Harbor is worth exploring. There is the boardwalk with attractions for kids and restaurants and bars for the adults. You can rent an electric duffy boat that seats up to 16 for all the family to explore all the beautiful boats and homes that some celebrities call their own in the large harbor. You can even bring food and drinks on board the boat but need a sober driver of course.

Plenty of restaurants, bars and events (US Open Surfing competition, Air shows, etc). Explore main street and enjoy a bonfire at night on the beach over smores with dedicated fire pits right on the sand. Also enjoy the open-air mall Pacific City with plenty of shopping, bars and restaurants. I recommend checking out The Bungalow or Tanners Restaurant for an impressive night out.
