Corona Del Mar State Beach is a lovely beach on Newport Harbor's eastern side within the Corona Del Mar neighborhood of Newport Beach, jointly owned and operated by the City of Newport Beach and the State of California. The beach, which is also known as Corona Del Mar Main Beach, makes for an excellent beachfront getaway for families during the summer months due to its calm, clear water conditions, which are protected from western currents due to a section of rock jetties. Beachgoers can also snorkel, scuba dive, or surf in the beach's water when weather conditions allow. Spacious beachfront sands allow visitors to sunbathe, play beach volleyball, and partake in beachfront picnics, with day-use fire pits and barbecue grills available. To avoid the beach's main entrance charge, visitors can enter at Inspiration Point along the beach's eastern end.
