In Newport Beach, Los Angeles;
In a nutshell
The beautiful, wide sands of Newport Beach stretch for 5km and are,
unsurprisingly, home to some of California's most exclusive million-dollar
homes! There's plenty of public access where you can soak up the sun
or have a go at the most popular local pastime - surfing!
Don't miss a day trip to Catalina Island. Spot seals at Seal Rocks or
take a glass-bottomed boat at Lovers Cove Marine Reserve for
underwater exploits.
Shopaholics can head to the Spanish-style open-air shopping mall,
Fashion Island - its almost opposite your hotel!
The hugely popular TV programme The O.C. is filmed here - have the
O.C. experience when you stay in Newport Beach and watch out for
those cast members!
