The basics

The Orange County coast starts at Seal Beach, then runs southeast through several postcard-worthy towns: Huntington Beach, Newport Beach, Laguna Beach, Dana Point, and San Clemente. Throughout the region you’ll find everything from gorgeous sunsets and world-class surfing to quirky art and seafood restaurants. Highlights for visitors include the 18th-century Mission San Juan Capistrano, the Orange County Museum of Art, Laguna Art Museum, and the Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve, home to more than 200 species of birds. You can travel the area independently or book a guided tour of the coastline, with many departing from Anaheim.

Things to know before you go

  • You don’t need a wetsuit to surf in the summer, but most locals use one during the rest of the year.

  • Surfboards are available to rent near many major surf beaches, including Huntington Beach and Newport Beach.

  • Don’t miss the signature dessert served on Newport Beach’s Balboa Island—the Balboa Bar is a confection of chocolate-dipped ice cream rolled in sweet or salty toppings.

When to get there

Festivals, concerts, and special events make summer the most popular time to visit Orange County, and beaches fill to the brim in June, July, and August. Balmy weather extends into September—ideal for exploring the shoreline when it’s a bit less crowded. If you’re hoping to cheer on the return of migratory swallows to the Mission San Juan Capistrano, plan on attending the Return of the Swallows Celebration on March 19.
