Fundado en 1932, este es, sin duda alguna, el mejor museo de Orange County. El museo mejoró radicalmente desde que reabrió sus puertas en 1992, con espacios más amplios y mejores. Creado con fondos donados por Charles Bowers, el complejo fue construido de acuerdo con el estilo de las Misiones de California y está adornado con murales que rinden homenaje a la temática. Así que la intención original del señor Bowers era que el museo se enfocara en la historia local, desde entonces el museo cuenta con colecciones mucho más variadas, y cuenta con piezas de culturas del sureste asiático, Oceanía, México y Norteamérica.

The area is 900 acres (364 hectares) of estuary, marsh, and coastal sage scrub habit, and it is home to several endangered bird species. Seventy species of fish use the bay and during winter migration thousands of shorebirds and ducks either visit or spend the winter here. Kayak, canoe, walking and electric boat tours are offered and a state of the art Interpretive Center is located at 2301 University Dr., Newport Beach.

For those who can make only one stop in Corona del Mar, make it the Corona del Mar State Beach. This area alone can make everyone fall in love with CdM, a laid-back multi-million-dollar neighborhood accented by the Pacific, with streets lined by palm trees and flower beds. On the bluff, three signs mark beach access: Lookout Point, Main Beach and Inspiration Point. Each point has a different view, but all share Catalina Island in the background, and Newport Bay and Balboa Island in the foreground. A few steps towards the south end of Ocean Boulevard is a secluded cove near the Robert E. Badham Marine Life Refuge, and some of the most extravagant mansions follow.

A paradise for surfers, the Wedge is the name given to a particular location off the Balboa Peninsula in Newport Beach. The spot is called so owing to the huge wedge-like waves that occur here due to the outstretched Newport Beach Jetty that lies in the path of the incoming tides from the North Pacific Ocean. With waves reaching as high as 30 feet (nine meters) at times, the Wedge occupies a very special place on the bucket list of most surfers and adventure seekers.
