Perfectly positioned between the lively hubs of Newport Beach’s two piers, this central stretch of the Balboa Peninsula offers one of the most convenient and activity-filled settings on the coast. With the beach in one direction and Newport Harbor in the other, guests can easily move between wide sandy beaches, bayfront recreation, local restaurants and shops, and other classic coastal attractions.

Stroll the boardwalk between the piers, enjoy a surf session, or head toward the harbor side of the peninsula for boat rentals, kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing excursions, whale-watching tours, and trips to Catalina Island. Leave the car behind and explore local favorites such as Marina Park, the waterfront Lighthouse Café, the historic Dory Fleet Fish Market, Balboa Village, the Balboa Fun Zone, and the Balboa Island Ferry, all within easy walking or biking distance.

For additional shopping and dining, Lido Marina Village and Fashion Island are just a short drive away, offering everything from harborfront restaurants and local boutiques to luxury retailers and upscale dining.
