There’s never a bad time for pasta!
Attractions!
It’s Newport Beach - enjoy the beach!
Hike, bike or run with the Kobrines along the bike path in Newport Beach if you want to enjoy the sand and some sun! There’s nowhere quite like Newport Beach! Grab a coffee and take a stroll or sit for a minute and watch the early morning surfers.
Kayak Adventure
Kayak around Lido and Balboa Island.
Crystal Cove
Explore Crystal Cove’s ocean views along the main path boarded by small cliffs or experience El Moro for those wanting more strenuous hikes. Beaches, tide pools or self-guided hikes are just a handful of the things you can explore!
