About one hour from Los Angeles, Newport Beach is a seaside getaway with great shopping, a choice of hotels and many leisure activities. Watch the whales migrating from right from the beach from May through August which is also the best time for a summer weekend getaway. Visit the quaint Balboa Island which is more like a town you would encounter on the East Coast.
